77k miles. Never been off-road, never been driven hard. About 60k miles problem first showed but just occasionally. Now its not consistent but happens more often than not. 2-3 shift takes a long time then when shift occurs its pretty harsh, with a shudder. All else seems OK. And yes, I do get the flashing O/D indication.
While I am no transmission kinda-guy, I am a motorhead of sorts and have no problem with trying a little DIY here. Is this a typical problem? Are there some obvious things to try first?
