99 cougar trans or valve issue?
My 99 cougar shifts a little hard. In park the idle fluctuates around 200. I have to check to be sure. While I'm driving it, get it up to speed, it goes to 3rd gear fine. It's doesn't go back down to second gear when it should. While its in 3rd, the rpms are at 2000. Is this normal? Right when I stop it it shifts pretty hard to first gear. It shifts the hardest coming to a complete stop. I take my foot off the gas and it basically drives itself. Maintaining the speed I was doing. How do I check to see if cruise control is off? Could it be in overdrive? Also It makes this humming noise kinda like a vacuum cleaner. I read some forums on ask.com, says its an engine valve. Just hope I don't need a new trans. Any suggestions??
