Description of the problem	I just purchased 2005 toyota avalon limited. I experience terrible transmission hesitation/slippage. It is getting dangerous when i have to enter highway ramp because of transmission hesitation. When i coast at low speed, for example, i notice a red traffic light ahead and take my foot off the gas, the car then continues forward as if in gear and after a period of time it feels as if the transmission shifts to neutral, the rpms drop to below 1,000. Then the traffic light changes when my speed is about 5 - 10 mph and i slowly depress the accelerator. The engine rpms increase about 300 - 500 rpms but there is no acceleration. Then the transmission gets the message and we start to accelerate.
