Feels like transmission is slipping when changing gears.

Its an automatic transmission and when it shifts into the next higher gear it kinda reves up while shifting as if slipping. Check engine lite stays on and temp. guage goes all the way to hot right after start up but engine doesn't overheat.

    What codes do you have for the check engine light? Have you done a transmission flush or service lately and if so was the correct fluid used?

Your TCU (Transmission Control Unit) is bad it will have a burnt diode inside it. You can find it behind the kick panel on the passenger side. i found them on ebay for about 79.00 with exchange.

1997 toyota coroola dx automatic 214Kmiles. Gears not shifting correctly until car warms up.

Is this an automatic or manual transmission? When was the last time you changed the filter if it's an automatic? You may have a valve body problem too.

3000gt transmission

Hi,
Look on a 3000GT forum (search on Google) to find out how to read the transmission codes. I bet they are stored in the transmission computer. This will tell you what needs fixed.

Also, does sound like the shifter may be out of adjustment. Maybe a cable is broken or loose.

When do I use the d 5 gear in acura 2003 tl 3.2 liter

Pretty much all the time!

D3, D4, and D5 are all just *DRIVE* like on any automatic transmission, EXCEPT
that the number next to the D is the "highest gear the automatic transmission will go into".
The Acura just gives you a choice, in case you don't want to go into a higher gear (like if it's slippery traction or a steep hill, etc.)

1 means: Manual gear. FIRST GEAR ONLY.
2 means: Manual gear. SECOND GEAR ONLY.
D3 means: Use automatic transmission, but engine will never shift above 3rd gear.
D4 means: Use automatic transmission, but engine will never shift above 4th gear.
D5 means: Use automatic transmission, but engine will never shift above 5th gear.
