How do you know when your auto-tranny slips in between gear changes?
I think this is happenening with my car but I'm not sure.
ThanX

RBa.......

 

car will not accelerate at all inbetween 1-2....its like it cant decide between which gear and you can shove your pedal down to WOT but the car wont go anywhere at that point

 

The engine rpm will keep rising before the shift and then hang up at a point for like a second and then finally slip into gear.

 

ye if u shut the radio off and u accelarate u will hear the engine accelarating but then right before it will shift u hear the sound go to a higher pitched sound for like 2 seconds and then it shifts... thats the slip... i finally heard it yesterday on my car right before the meet... i was pissed... but whatever... guess i just gotta take it in with the TSB... hopefully they will do a full swap for me...

 

the engine makes before it shifts into 2 gear? i dont know anything about cars(actually i do, but not much) and i dont want to take my car to the dealer(35 miles from me) until i know exactly what the problem. i dont seem to be getting all these problems that most of you guys say that the max has, so thats how i know that there is a problem, there is no way my car is flawless, flawless nissan, thats an oxymoron for sure. help me, i'm just a dumb 18 year college student

 

well u get the sound when u WOT it... it basically sounds like you are still acelarating when u are not... the sound goes from the steady accelaration sound u had to a higher pitched sound... like as if the clutch disengages... i dunno its hard to explain...
