Auto problems...again
I have a couple of problems, that I think may be all part of a specific problem.
First, I know my TV cable is set correctly!
The trans also is NOT slipping.
The tranny fluid is pink, and does not smell burned. I know this because it leaks a little.
1. Shifting from P->R or P->D, there is a pretty good jerk. It is not smooth like modern trannys.
2. Shifting from 1-2 under light throttle, is pretty violent, and gets SLIGHTLY better when it warms up. With cold tires, it will even chirp going into second.
3. When going around corners, the tranny tends to be in a higher gear (or 2) than it should be in, and I have to press the gas a bit to have it shift down to the next lower gear. It lugs, kinda like trying to go around a corner in a manual trans car in 5th gear at 25 mph.
