Hey everyone, hope you guys are having a better weekend than I am.
So I was driving last night and out of nowhere my car wanted to play a joke on me called I'm not going to shift into 3rd gear anymore. It's pretty funny except the joke isn't over. lol also if it does get into gear it does this weird jerking type thing like it's trying to shift back down idk. i got to my friends house and had to reverse and then when i put it back into drive it just revved up but wouldn't move. checked my fluid which looks like shit but that's about it I had to get to work.
All this happened while I had 9 qts of trans fluid in my car and waiting on 2 pressure switches for 3rd and 4th gear and a trans filter being shipped to me so I could perform preventative maintenance after I read about the automatic trans problem my car is prone to (2003 V6 Coupe)
anyway, suggestions would be great but if not just wanted to share a story. if you are thinking about pulling the trigger on any of the aboved maintenance products my suggestion is do it and do it as quickly as possible because you really don't want to end up in a situation like this. Updates will follow:headbash::rant::bawling: I guess it might be a while before my car gets its paint job now
