I have a 1998 grand prix gt and in the past few months I have been having transmission problems. Sometimes when I turn on my car the transmission trembles and shakes. When I change gears the transmission bucks and shakes I really need to know what problem my car has and what are some repair options. Thank You very much for help.

This should really be checked over first hand you a trans specialist, a number of tests can be done to determine the cayuse of the problem, with out testing you are only second guessing this type of problem and in doing that you can waste good money chasing false leads.

Start by having it pressure tested to determine if the throttle and governor pressures are within specs-
