Ive never tried the 3rd. I start in D then remeber to put in 3 after switching happens. but as I said it will do it from 2nd to 3rd if it's in 3.

thanks, again
OK do as Earthworm suggests and pull the codes for the ECU and TCU, the answer could be there.
You say "it will flare and switch between 2nd and 3rd".
When this happens, does it flair when going back to 2nd, or when going into 3rd?,,,,,,, Need to know this.

Flaring has to do with the brake band in the box.
The constant shifting could be related to either the Throttle sensor, or a speed sensor.
