(it feels like it shifts out of first then stays on second and trying to shift to third,, the rpm on 1500 to 2500 is like bouncy not going straight up) PLEASE HELP.. I might have to go to the dealer for this one. thanks

Calm down there buddy! You've posted three times in under 20 minutes. Don't want you to have a heart attack or anything like that

 

TTT

 

I realize you are excited but do NOT TTT your topic when it gets down to the 5th one on the first page! That is very inconsiderate of the other members here. Also, this is in the wrong forum. Moving to the Drivetrain forum.

 

doesnt sound like the transmission at all. And you dont sound like you could diagnose your car yourself so I would recommend takin the car to a mechanic.

sounds like engine performance trouble, like misfiring or faulty sensors.

 

I just got back after driving the Z, and it was fine, I let it sit in cold for a lilttle while and its fine now, im pretty sure is going back when the car gets hot. I guess only happens when the car gets hot,, after driving for awhile...anyone know this?
