My max is starting to have a weird feel to the shift between 2nd and 3rd. It's an automatic. It feels like somebody taps on the brake for a split second durring the shift. Teh car has 44k on it. I did a drain and fill, not a flush at 36k. We also replaced the filter too. Any ideas? I checked the level and its fine- right in the middle oof the acceptable zone.

Are you sure it's not the famous cold shift of our autotragic trannys your feeling?

Also make sure you check the level while the car is running.
