Hi CURT,

There should be something wrong with the trans sensors and driving should not be very fine, just that it might be very slight and you did not notice.

Get a scan done at Autozone to find out what is wrong.

Is the speedometer working? Are gear shiftings very smooth? Are there any jerks while shifting?

I have to answer no to all your questions but I did notice
one time when I was shifting that there was a jerk to the car but again that was quite some time ago and has not happened since

Hi curt little,

Never mind about it for now, just get a scan done.

It could be the lock-up clutch, if so, no noticeable difference in driving, just that the rpm might be a little than previous was and fuel consumption might have gone slightly worse.
