Tranny help!

Wuts up guys and gals?!? Just recently my tranny has been acting funny. When the tranny shifts from first to second I would get a thump right where the shifter was indicating that I may have a bad mount. The only thing is the tranny mount is an Energy Suspension mount so I'm sure that's not it. Torque arm mount seems to be ok. Then just last week the tranny felt as if though it wasn't fully going into gear. It felt as if though I was holding the brake while i was pushing the throttle. Just this morning I was making a turn and for a split second the car went out of gear!! It quickly went back into gear and drove normal. What are the symptoms of a bad converter or am I looking at bad clutches?? Quick run down of the symptoms.........

1. Occasional thump or bang on the undercarrige during shifting.
2. Trans will not move car unless throttle is engaged. (feels as if pushing on brake and throttle at the same time.)
3. Trans popped out of gear as if shifting into neutral. (only happened once)

It's not doing this all the time just on occasion. For the most part it drives just fine.

Thanks for any help guys!!

I'll move this to the "Drivetrain" forum for you.

check your fluid level needs to be top of cross hatch no such thing as a little low with a trans
