3 Main issues.
#1 Sometimes when doing a slow roll up to a stop and then getting on the gas before coming to a complete stop it feels like the transmission slips and then slams with a bang into gear. But it doesn’t do it all the time.
#2 When going down hill if I back off the throttle and lightly tap the brakes it starts down shifting.
#3 When going up a steady incline its always shifting up and down and the shifts are not very smooth. You can definitely feel it. The more people in the vehicle the worse it gets.
Are these the signs of a transmission on the verge of failing or do they always shift a little hard?
