it started about 2 weeks, on the 1-2 shift it will be lazy almost like slipping then any other shift after that is fine. It doesn't really do it at light throttle, sometimes at mid throttle, and the few times I did at WOT it does. Ive been taking it easy and not doing any hard accel in first since it started. It has 177k miles on it, its been a few years since ive done a flush. I just replaced the filter and filled with fresh fluid. There wasn't a lot of dust in the pan and no hard material. Fluid was brown but not burnt. Doesn't really seemed to help all that much.
Ive also had the occasional hard shift on all gears, but it may do that once a year or every 2 years. Id just shut the car off and restart and I would not experience it anymore for a long time, but since the lazy shift has started it has become more prone to doing it. You can feel the shift thru out the whole car.
Id like to get another year or two outta the trans before I decide to go buy another car. Am I about due for a replacement trans? I have found a 60k mile unit locally for $500, but is there something else that can be done? Will fresh shift solenoids fix this issue? Thanks
