Tonight when I was driving home I noticed that the engine raced just a little bit (50 RPM or so) between 2nd and 3rd. Then the transmission shifted hard with a nice "thud" noise.
I check the trans fluid regularly, and it was just changed a few months ago. The fluid is bright red, does not smell burned, and does not have metal abrasives in it.
Is the transmssion going to die a slow and painful death at this point? I read that sticking valves and solenoids going bad can also cause this to happen.
No problems shifting through the other gears. Should I get this thing to a technician before its too late? Please and thanks.
