Car has about 160,000 miles.
I ceased changing transmission oil after being cheated a couple of times. A mechanic I trust says it's now unsafe to change it, unsafe even to drop the pan, let some fluid out and top it off.
For the last couple of months, when I drive around 60+, the automatic transmission ceases shifting properly.
The engine surges to almost 4000rpm without any increase on the gas pedal, even going downhill, and without any increase in speed.
At lower speeds it seems OK.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Has anyone solved it without replacing the transmission?
Thanks a lot.
