Transmission lag/ shift problem (auto)

Hey all, I did a search, but did not find anything.

All of a sudden my automatic 04 TL (30k miles) is hesitating during semi-quick acceleration. Doesn't happen always. I am not talking about SS, but regular D.

A number of times I have thought it was in low gear because the car begins to lag with little power and wont find 2nd gear. I was in D each time though. Feels almost like the car is dragging something heavy.

Are there any known problems with the 3rd gen transmissions? Anyone else have this problem? Thanks.

I dunno what you searched for but my key word was "transmission" . There are several threads in this results page that are similar to what you are talking about.

Thanks,

Maybe I just didn't go back enough pages as I thought it was a newer problem
