So last week I got my wisdom teeth out... was pretty bad, it's still hurting, they were deep... past impacted. So I was down and out for a few days... well in short I drove my car all of about 10mins durring a whole week, just sat parked for about a week.

Now my tranny seems to be slow on the shifting. Doesn't seem to be shifting at points it usually does. Auto... sorry, should have mentioned that. Yea, I didn't get a 5spd... I regret it, but this is what I got. I'll be doing a normal acceleration and just know when the tranny is going to shift, just learn it after a while to expect a change at certian times, rpms, throttle. Seems to just be taking longer and waiting longer inbetween shifts. Mainly when heavy acceleration, normal driving seems fine.

Is this bad? Ok? Can I fix it? Should I worry?

 

uhh reset the computer? thats teh best advice i can give u if u think its a problem. if the car seems to be running fine during normal operation i would think there is no problem or a very little one. thats my idea....correct me if i am wrong

 

:doh:

what a doof.... I'll try that before I leave from work tonight.

 

its ok i like to be dumb and forget things that are plain and simple all the time....



ok i do that way more often then i would like to admit

 

I just was able to get around to that last night...... seems much more like normal now.

I still want to change the tranny fluid... buy my work schedule sucks and I have like no time to do it.

 

Well it's back to doing what it was doing before. Seemed better for a day. Then right back, might have just been a fluke.

Think chaning the fluid would make a diffrence or am I looking at a rebuild?

 

reset it again. if it keeps goin back and forth then it shouldnt be mechanical. how many miles on it? if your gonna change the fluid, take it to a place where they can flush it all out instead of doin it yourself. the drain doesnt get all the fluid out usually

 

94k. I'll reset it tomorrow.

My brother thinks that the gears are stickin. He's gunna see if a friend he knows will look at it.

 

well I had a good transmission guy take the car for a drive, he says the tranny is shifting good and where it should be. suggest change the fluids and filters, have an appointent for him to do that.

Also suggested that I get the fuel filter changed. Could be the cause of some of the surges I've been seeing.
