Auto Transmission

Post by nORDX »

Hey,

My transmission is playing up, doesn't always change when it should, for example doesn't always kick down on a hill. One morning first thing got stuck in 1st for about 10 seconds and another time got stuck in a higher gear when stopped at lights and pulling away (well trying to pull away!!).

Dip stick level is correct.

What else could it be, a sensor may be or the actual motor that changes the gears??

Thanks
