Transmission Stuck In Second…sometimes.

Hello

Our 99 RX300 w/85k seems not to want to switch gears between second and third.

Last night, we drove some 40 miles in second gear (4krpms) at 60+mph. No amount of jiggering of everything transmission related on the dash would kick it into drive (or third). On the way home it was fine, shifting properly.

We had a opposite problem about a year ago while climbing a steep grade. It would not kick down into second, just dogged up the hill in 3rd. A unique situation we soon forgot it. Might be related(?).

The transmission was rebuilt by a shop that I knew and they seemed to know the transmission well. That was about 3yrs or 10k miles ago.

Any obvious, common problems with this transmission. ?

Regards, PK
