This sounds a bit more like the TPS to me. My car could never choose between 3&4 while cruising, but did fine when I leaned on it a bit more. 1-2 shifts were also really hard. I knocked off $2k when I bought mine because it felt like a blown trans. That little sensor got it running like new and I haven't had any trouble since.
I know I'm no expert, so I won't muddy up the thread any more, but I wonder how many SVXs were scrapped over misdiagnosing this problem.
