Shit, I thought I was lucky

I think my tranny may be showing the first signs of waving goodbye. In the past few days, when I accelerate (only sometimes) it takes a second for the tranny to upshift after I take my foot off the accelerator, keeping my RPM's up around 3.5k while I'm coasting. Then, today, I was going down a hill, tapped the brake at the crest, and let Grade Logic hold the tranny on the way down. Well, it stuck at the bottom for a few seconds, forcing me to coast at 50 in 3rd, keeping my RPM's up again. Could it be my tranny going?

Sounds like it could be trouble... that sucks.

Good luck!

Ya, when it starts slipping it's pretty hard to miss. Good luck with it. Mine slipped a bunch shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear. Oddly enough it did that for 3-4k miles. Then it would start getting stuck in 2nd gear and the dash would light up like the xmas tree.

lol, my tranny fluid was black.
