depends on tire size and gear raio

change the fluid. if that dnt help i have a used trans for sale [email protected]

You are going to need the transmission rebuilt to cure this problem.

Sounds like it could be the ECU (electronic control unit); easy to change. I have bought used ones a lot cheaper than new ones and work fine. Your year may be located under the glove box to the right behind panel (my older car was passenger side under the mat). They are easy to change out regardless of location.

that delayed reaction may be the transmission slipping. with those many miles it could be the transmission going bad

It's the "shift" solenoid on your transmission has gone bad. Get it at the junk yard for around $80.00. You want the "shift" solenoid, not the "lock-up" one.You can see it on the front of your transaxle. It has a small electrical plug attached and comes off easily. Both solenoids may be together, or you may only have one. Easy fix, but depending on the doner car, your shift points may change (engine may seem racier)

make sure the fluids full, start it then shut off,and immediatly pull the stick as the engine stops. and is the speedo working constant when hot? could be a speedo senor too

When you first start driving it usually takes atleast 4 miles to warm the transmission to operating temperature. The temp of the motor may say it is warmed up, But, the trans fluid and differential fluid only begins to warm as you drive and the parts are actually working. THe computer has sensors that keep the trans from shifting to OD until the temp is up as not to add stress to the motor until warmed properly. Hope this helps and have a good day.

run engine codes, had same issue once before it was bad computer good luck

scap it
