Would the Idle Air Control unit possibly cause my SVX to shift poorly at low rpms? Cause that is what she seems to be doing. I went and cleaned my MAF as well as the Throttle Body, and the dying has decreased in frequency, but shifing is poor.. As I described before, going from 1st to 2nd, and more so from 2nd to 3rd, the rpms will jump up and the car will act as though I had slipped her into neutral for a few seconds before the rpms drop and the next gear catches) This only seems to happen at low speeds/low rpms (when I have only depressed the accelerator pedal lightly). When I use more gas from 1st gear, she shifts fine, if not a little less smoothly than I would like. Could this be related to the IAC? Any other ideas? Would a simple transmission rebuild be the only solution? If so, I'll have to shoot the car through the hood.
