Hi,
I have a 2002 Chevy Cavalier 2.2L Automatic 4-speed w/ 65000, and until yesterday had no problems with it at all. When accellerating the car at approx 40 mph and while it's shifting between 2nd and 3rd gear. The car starts to lose power intermittently, and with this the speedometer drops down sometimes to zero without really losing speed. The car runs fine before and after this point. Any ideas???
