sounds like your over drive is getting stuck. on front of your transmission there is a square four wire plug. try disconnecting it and test drive it if it fixes the problem then dont plug it back in you really dont need it. it just gives you a little bit better gas milage.

well the labor involved to replace the torq converter lock up solinoid would be very costly, and not all cars come with over drive so some cars from the factory dont have it.
