| Description of the problem | While i am driving and my car is changing gears, it does fine until its in fourth gear. The rpm will go to about 2,800 until it changes to fifth gear. Onve its in 5th gear the rpm will go into a "neutral" state and rev from 4,700 rpm to 5,700 without any acceleration. This happens when accelerating up a freeway entrance . I have been to the dealership 3x now and all they keep saying is the transmission needs an update. And the adaptive values need to be re- learned. I have now had my transmission fluid filled once and then i paid to get a tranny flush. And adadptive values reset twice. Nothing has changed. I have 38,000 miles and this has been going on for about the last 15,000 miles. |
