So the trans has always shifted fine one day it wouldn't move at all in drive pulled into 2 which is manuall 3rd and got it rolling shifted into drive and it hit 4th and then 5th. After that day when I take off in drive no matter if it's cold or hot it shifts from 1st to 2nd then when it goes to hit 3rd it just revs like its in neutral I have to let the rpms drop all the way to idle then it hits 3rd. Also when slowing down it will not downshift unless you are at a complete stop. So I did some research and replaced the upper and lower valve body gaskets, the epc solenoid, the intermediate and overdrive servos, adjusted the bands to spec and power flushed the fluid with fresh merc v along with a new filter. I tested all the solenoids while I was in there and all tested perfect. After all that work nothing changed it's still the same as before. No od light flash or codes at all. I see a tsb for a PCM reflash to fix some shifting problems but I don't know if that's the issue. Any help at all is great.
