What's up with my shifting?
So recently I noticed that my car does not shift correctly. Basically any time the tranny is about to shift the car goes neutral for a second and revs higher. Say it's about to shift at 5k it'll hold and rev to 6k. I noticed tonight it will keep rising unless I pull off the gas and let it shift. My ks is messed up so that will be fixed soon. Is that my cause or what? I wouldnt think misfires since it has done it in every gear. What's up?

Check your trans fluid, is it burnt up and black? If you have the time and can deal with a mess, I'd take the pan off and check to see how much material is caught on the magnets. Any CEL or trans codes?

Definitely sounds like slipping. Possibly on it's way out 
Mine will occasionally act something like that when it's cold, but will shift fine when it's warm. Mine also likes to rev WAY too high when it downshifts then has to settle itself down once it's in gear

I had ks and emission something. Nothing that I would think effect that. I was hoping it was just the cold plus the ks. I've kind of hesitant on this 00vi swap now if my tranny is going out....
