3rd Gear Hesitation

Recommended Posts

Just yesterday the shift into 3rd gear became slow and it seems to hesitate. It is quite annoying when driving. On the highway a passenger accidentally bumped the car into neutral while I was accelerating and then put it back into drive while I was still accelerating. Don't know if that would cause anything. Either way I am going to flush the tranny fluid, replace the filter and install an inline filter. Any help?

instead of spend money on filter and fluid, have the tranny examine. i suspect damage. tranny goes from 1st to 2nd and to 3rd and on. .

you knocked it out of 3rd and put it back in. . .during the temporary out of gear, the car slowed down. when u put it back in gear w/the high acceleration, the tranny got confused as to which gear. . i suspect

if u do change fluid and filter and see some metal particles, definitely need a diagnose right away.
