when slowing down, at around 60 km/h the rpms go to about 3000, almost feels like driving stick and putting it into a lower gear. the car is automatic btw. every auto car I have driven, you never feel the downshift, atleast not as aggresive as this one. has this ever happened to anyone here, and what could it be? solenoid?
