i checked the fluid and it seems fine but it's been a while since i've changed the fluid. I'll let you know later today what happens with the new fluid and filter.

i just replaced the fluid and filter, i already drove it for awhile but it still takes off slow with high rpm's.

I was hoping for better news. If it is still slipping, the clutches must be bad / worn. If I'm correct, the only thing you can do is rebuild it.

oh dam i forgot to tell you that my catalytic's are gutted i got them gutted like two years ago and forgot to replace them. after driving it for good number of miles it seems to have improved in taking off but now i hear like a pop pop pop sound when i take fast don't really know if the sound is from the catalytic's being gutted or what.
