i was driving around today i floor it a lil bit and the revs pick up slow. i slow down to about 15-20 at turn then i floor it the same. i have an auto. so do yall think the trans stays in fourth? swhat can i do to make it better? its not all the time though if im at a dead stop then it works normal. only when i drive normal and i get it into fourth it does it sometimes

 

So have you changed the tranny fluid? And how many miles on the car? Do you know if the trans has ever been rebuilt?

 

no i havent changed the fluid and i dont know if its been rebuilt. the car has 88k miles. i drove it today and it was fine so idk whats up

 

How long have you had it? Maybe it could use a fluid change. Couldn't hurt!

 

MY MOM TOOK HER DURANGO TO GET A TRANS FLUSH AT A TRANS SHOP HERE IN TOWN. WE GOT IT BACK SHIFTING HARD INTO 2ND. SO WE TAKE IT BACK AND THEY SAID ITS 950 TO FIX. THEY HAD TO REBUILD IT. I THOUGHT I WAS SOME BULL**** BUT MY DAD IS THE ONE THAT GAVE THE OK. my friendsaysammco is good. what do yall think?

sorry about the message being in caps but i wasnt gonna do it over

 

Where in Texas are you? In New Braunfels is a shop calledBrinkkoeters 830 625-9646and they have worked on my 96 Impala SS and have my 02 Camaro SS as we speak. They do very good work. Do not trust the chain companies. Most are independently owned and operate under the name of the chain. Trust the owner as individual tranny guy by his rep not the name above the shop. Sometimes the best thing to do is buy a tranny and swap it yourself instead of someone rebuilding what you have. Check with Jegs and Summit.

 

it might not be your tranny i had a similar problem in my other car and it was the maf sensor that was starting to go bad, it prevented me from accelerating normally.
