Car was driving fine up to last week 1991 UK auto.

 

I have started to notice that when flooring it in first gear it started to hesitate at 7000 rpm and dropped to 2nd after a couple of seconds.

 

Now its after getting worse. Wont drop from first gear at all unless I take my foor of the accelarator.

 

Also its finding it difficult to stay in overdrive.The slightest pressure on acceleartor when cruising wil cause it to drop to third.

 

between 2nd and third she seems to be slipping i.e when flooring the revs will rise but the car wont accelerate then all of a sudden she bites and takes off.

 

Box was only rebuilt 2 years ago. Am I in Deep S?%t or might an autobox oil and pilot filter change do the trick.

 

This is my second auto Z. My first one has been sitting on the drive for 2 years with a blown auto box. Are all auto box's this problematic??

Have done autbox ECU check , could be throttle sensor.

Take good autobox specialist who can do pin test etc.

sounds like my box........ just before it died.. unlucky dude.. rip

Did the autobox diagnostic.

 

No errors found here.

 

Sounds like I could be in trouble.

i got one for you too, my seems to pause for a split second when changing gear( like its having a little think!!), only does it when i driving gentle, its fine if i clog it.

 

Its also only done this since i adjusted the TPS could that have owt to do with it???

 

Or am i just paranoid about autoboxes having had one fail on me before!!???
