I was driving at 60 mph in cruise when the transmission seemed to jump partly out of gear rpm went up to about 3400 then back to 2300 or so and it intermittently does this, after It cools off it will go 20 miles or so before it will act up. This is my commuter car 40 miles both directions. I drove to work again yesterday to see what happens and it did the same thing then on the way home only acted this way maybe once below 40 mph it is fine. If anyone has any ideas I would be greatfull thank you.
