hrm, couple new issues

A few issues that I'm not worrying too much about, but they're there

the car gets a shudder sometimes whilst driving or idling with the a/c on full bore... not used to this happening. and i don't believe it's from the compressor kicking on, because it happens fairly frequently. it's not very noticeable, but there.

second, the tranny wants to hold onto gears when you go at it full-bore. it gets to 6.5k and just sticks there, so long as you keep the pedal to the floor. backing off a wee bit lets it shift, but it shouldn't be hanging onto gears like that. normal driving is perfectly smooth and normal.

any thoughts?

Sounds like maybe one of the radiator fans is vibrating.

As for the other issue I don't know.

rad fans are on there fine and tight o_o


Also, when accelerating around 45+ mph, it hesitates at about half throttle. give it some stick and it just starts behaving normally, but it wants to hesistate if you only give it half throttle...

Last time I had that happen not only did I find one engine mount was ripped in the back where I couldn't see, but it had also worked the nut loose... i'd start there.
