Hey CL

So the other day my tranny started acting up (auto). I turned the corner and accelerated pretty hard, (peddle 3/4+ down) and from second to third it took a while. the AT would take it out of second and my rpm's would stay the same, for like 2-3 seconds then it would hit into 3rd. jolting foward. after that happened its been acting funny. acted normal for a day or so after it slipped. but the last 2-3 days it just feels really slugish as times. underpowered. not pulling like it used to. it slips a little here and there. It has also been really hot lately (90-95ish). 180k miles on her. previous owner was an idiot.

any ideas on whats going on? bad ATF? or just a bad tranny

 

About the right time for a rebuild

 

mine does the same!!! i decided time for a 5spd swap.... there are some TSB's on shifting concerns but nothing that fits your description.

 

fluid condition?
you can always try to change filter (screan) and fluid and it may help

 

There are a lot of trannys in my city too, scary shhht

 

hahahaha good one

 

I'm getting something similar once in a while too. Just got a fresh filter kit and some Type IV at carquest. Probably do the change today or tomorrow. Will post if it helps or not. Probably just prolonging the inevitable.
