ok, I'm heading back from a 50 mile trek, so nearly 100 miles round trip with the A/C on, driving along on the highway about 80mph, and my RPM shoots up, and I coast down to 60/50/40... about 4K at 40mph... get to a stop, and shift into p then back to drive, and it shifts normally up to 60 or so, then lets go again, and I'm back to 40... I trundle the 1.5 miles to my exit, pull into a gas station, and check fluid, it's a little low, I check the coolant, also a little low... nothing to indicate the problem...
I'd think clutches, but it shifts normally, but will not go into 4th. I get 1, 2, 3, and it holds... when cold I get 4, up until it warms up, then it pops int neutral, and holds 3 when I slow to 55...
what's up?
I just put in an order to Phil for a cooling hoses to tail shaft seal rebuild kit, with all superseded updates to the transmission, (it's leaked a little fluid constantly since I got the car) but I fear this will not solve the issue. the fact that it holds 3, makes me think
VB issues, not clutch problems...
