Anyway, back to kitnamore about the transmission question. Regardless of what home made remedies I can come up with for your car, your best best is to search around for a car palce that specifically deals with ECUs and other automotive computer components. If you insist on keeping your automatic, there are also places that can reset your gearboxes and such to tune it up. I agree with ED9man though, you really should look into getting a manual.
