Re: 2001 Gear change problem

It sounds like the pressure control solenoid in the transmission is going bad. It is a common failure and i don't think it costs too much to fix. I have the same problem with my car, except it happens about once a month. I will turn it on, usually after it has been "resting" for less than an hour, and when I accelerate, especailly when I go easily, it will jerk into the next gear. when I pull it over and restart, its fine. I'll have to get my car in to change the solenoid.
