    the trans is not slipping at all while driving regular or getting on it.

    pulling the battery did nothing, it still does it.

    did some googling, and found that it could be the PCS and/or TCC solenoid, and thoughts on this? and they both live in the side cover of the trans so im not to sure if im up to doing it myself, seems like a lot of work to get to.

    will a good scanner show these solenoids as a problem?

    im headed back to my mechanic friend later today for the air bag scan, im hopping he has a scanner for the trans as well.

    i got a date with my buddy tomorrow at 5:30 tomorrow to check out the air bag light and he said he'll check the trans out too. if need be hes got a trans shop to refer me to to scan the trans to rule out the pcs and tcc or blame them. but from how i described the problem, he thinks its the tcc and pcs but a scan is the only way to tell, so the waiting goes on....

    Well your last 3 posts elaborated more of where I was suggesting to look.

    The converter won't lock on cold starts until its warmed up. You mention it happens at 30 after its warmed up.

    The tcc can be chattering or engaging / disengaging. Feels like like the convertor is slipping. On my older gm cars I could actully unplug this and verify its the problem

    you left out the tcc part in your post, i know jack about transmissions especially fwd trans, how it works what sensors do what, most i ever did to a trans was a pan drop and filter, or removal and replacement of one, i dont go inside them either, i leave that to people who KNOW what they are doing

    your description sounds just like what is going on with the car now.

    its getting scanned tomorrow, so we'll know for sure whats wrong with it.

    is this one of them things a shift kit can fix? or tuning the line pressure up?

    or could a clogged filter cause this? as its needs a service but the truth is im scared to drop the pan, the fluid is in bad shape.
