Default not very happy with the way the car shifts 99 v6

the tranny doesnt shift very good....it will be slow at shifting and kinda shift hard... it also seems like it shifts too much..

when going 40 MPH the rpms are only at 1250 which seems low to me.


anyone think it is dying....i have a warrenty on it .

Default RE: not very happy with the way the car shifts 99 v6

it will shift into 4th at speed of 25Mph if the throttle load is light enough. At 30 Mph my car turns a measly 1K on the tach. 2K gets you 63Mph. The "shifting" is most likely the torque converter releasing when you step on the gas. It almost feels like a shift. even a litte gas will cause it to unlock. Does it shift hard all the time? If it does, change the fluid. If it does it only when it is cold, start saving your pennies for a new trans.
