WHEN ACCELERATING AT LOW SPEEDS THE TRANSMISSION EXPERIENCES A DELAYED SHIFT BETWEEN GEARS 3-5. THE SHIFT DELAY TYPICALLY LASTS 3-4 SECONDS. THIS CAUSES THE RPMS TO INCREASE TO 3000-4000. DRIVER HAS TO HEAVILY ACCELERATE TO ENABLE THE TRANSMISSION TO UPSHIFT. IN ADDITION, THIS CAUSES THE REAR TIRES TO SPIN MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. *TR
