actually I went to AAMCO, they give me a free check and said:
1. no computer check error code
2. short delay between 2nd and 3rd gear, and something related to "reverse" something...
3. flare
4. TCC/Lockup: shatters (I don't understand this term)

What I found is:
1. some times when I step on the gas all the way down, the RPM will stay at 2000 for 2-3 seconds, and then go up to 3000. that's a apparent delay.
2. If I am driving at about 65MPH on high way, and I am holding my foot stepping on the gas, not forward, not backward, just hold it there, the RPM will drop from 3000 to 2000, and at 2000, I can feel apparent viberation down there, I guess it comes from the transmission. AAMCO also said so.

Can you help me with this problem? Thank you.
 






interesting - it's strange that the TCC would be acting up and not setting a code.

What they probably said was shudder, not shatter. When was your fluid last changed?
 






I just bought last year, but I guess I do need to change the fluid. And, yes the word is shudder, sorry.
Thank you.
