The transmission in my '96 LX450 has some odd behavior. Here's the details:
I can modulate the brake and throttle to keep the transmission engaged and prevent this behavior from happening.
Anyone know what's going on? Should I start saving money for a new transmission?
- ATF fluid is spot on full
- No burnt smell or anything like that
- Occasionally (not all the time), when I come to a stop and that stop is going to be a short stop-and-go the engine revs as though the transmission disengaged for the stop, then before I can lift off the throttle the transmission slams into gear and I start moving.
- Shifts fine through all gears. No slippage while driving.
