'95 ES300 is bogging in first gear
My car boggs in first gear really really bad. Once it's in second gear, it runs like normal
I know it's a tranny problem, but exactly what, i'm not sure. Any help appreciated.
It's a '95 ES300, 150k miles.

While I dont have your car here with me to look at, you might want to check your rubber intake hose (the one going to the airbox; it's kind of an accordion-ing black hose). That hose can break at the "accordions" and cause your car to bog. Let me know what you find.

Most likely it's freshly broken then if you dont have a check engine light (yet).
Next step, check your motor mounts. On this particular 1MZ engine, bad motor mounts can cause the engine to shift around in such a way that the intake hose starts twisting and kinking too much.
