tranny problems - just like everyone else
i have the car shift pretty well with it being stock....had the 2-3 flare problem that doesn't seem to have a way to fix. i was told that this was brake band and have read recently that it is not . ~ i'm not concerned about the flaring since a few memebers have the problem as well.
with the shift kit from small car. i noticed that the shifting in general is harder than stock and has the power light flashing once in a while which seems to be normal. trying to do a trouble code, the car says that the car is fine. now, i have taken the resistor off to ship to budfreak. the power light is always flashing after i start the car. the 16 flashes. but this is not what i am wondering about. the last few days with and without the resistor on the car. i noticed that while driving on 3 or even D and dropping it to 3 the car would "brake" more particularly towards a speed in which the car would normally be in 4th gear. i have read about the brake band enough times...have tried to adjust it to fix the flare- when it was suggested to be the culprit...but had pretty much no success with doing it. is this "braking" symptom brake band related or something else? if anybody knows. i will do a trouble code to see what pops up as well.

The "braking" effect is as a result of removing the resistor.

I have flare too. Been that way for over two years now. I was told that it means the trans. needs rebuilding (estimates vary wildly). I'm not even remotely interested in that, personally; I'll just fix it by switching to a manual. :P

when you say flare are you talking about in the middle of a shift it seems to pop out of gear?

update to this thing
i noticed that this "braking" symptom on "3" is only when the car is at normal driving temps. if i drive the car when i just start it up, then i wouldn't have this "braking"...
i kind of guess it might be the tranny fluid heating up kind of thing.// i dont have a tranny cooler or aux filter in yet. i'm not crying about the symptoms on the car ~ i know that i have things to get installed/replace/fixed/rebuilt (whichever one it is). but i am slowly rebuilding the car to be as good of a condition as i can get it.
