Remember my problem before...I was having a 2-3 flareup during NORMAL cruise but WOT shifts were awesome and right at redline (5200)...
but now the flareup has shown up in WOT...when it goes from 2-3 i am lighting up 3 red light bars on the stock tach and i saw the engine light flicker for a second and then it shifted into 3rd...(i think that flicker is a shift light, an extender chip feature)
but before it never went that high at the 2-3 shift...it would shift right at 5200...now it's like 5600
so after that little run...i start driving around and i notice that i can't feel anymore shifts during cruise!!! from a dead stop it would take a lot of rpms to move the car...you could hear the motor reving kinda high in first gear...i thoguht for sure the tranny was toast...the rpms would stay right at around 2000 at all speeds up to 45 mph and from a dead stop i couldn't feel ANY shifts...i could feel the tcc lockup and that was it...it was like this for most of the afternoon and then i go for another spin and now my gears are back and i can feel the shifts again...
i kinda have a feeling my tranny is toast...i was going to race the car friday but i guess i would be stupid to now...should i just park the car and get ready for a rebuild or what...this tranny is bone stock with around 92k miles...
