I have started to notice in recent weeks that my car has lost some power. A very weird thing that i notice is that under WOT at around 45 i feel a ''shift'' ( i think this is lockup) and it normally happens at around 40-60 where as around 55-70 it would really come alive on WOT. Now, it only feels marginal the power.

Im thinking either the lockup schedule (tune) is really out of wack, or something else electrically is going on. OD lockup in the morning takes around 4-6 miles to actually engage. Also, under WOT, you can feel the power coming on and letting off almost like a hesitation, but its not... Do i make any sense to anyone? LOL.

Something tells me i might be visiting Sal a little bit sooner than expected.

FYI : This is a 2002 GM LSE :D



Ah, i forgot to add that when driving on light throttle i used to have lots of torque on demand without kicking it down between the speeds of 55-80. Again, that power only feels marginal. When driving again sometimes under light throttle, i will also feel a brief "buck" - No clue where that comes from on occasion.

How many miles and when was the last time you had the trans fluid replaced?
