LooC (Lucy)

Sigh—- because of course.
Had to make a 225 mile medical trip (hub, not me- I’m fine) yesterday (Fri)
On the last leg home, my transmission began Noticeably stuttering in (3rd?) gear around 45-55mph.. under regular easy acceleration it has hard, sudden, half secondish loss of forward power stutters  - gets better if I briefly ease off then push it harder.. once I get to freeway cruising speed - 60-70- it seems fine.

Guess it is $hop time again

And we have another medical trip in just a couple days..(Wed) so guess we’ll have to take his crappy truck that drinks gas like water.. :|

Check your fluid. It just might need a little bit more. 

If it is dirty or smells funny, you might need to have a filter change. 

Make sure that what is put in that AT is what is supposed to be. “Universal” fluids are usually a bad idea. Spend a little more and get the factory recommended fluid. I have seen many transmissions ruined by cheap atf that is not made right for that specific transmission.
