[QUOTE="Cynthia Grant, post: 1027561, member: 57992"] Hi! My 2003 ST had a new transmission installed around 120k miles. Now it's at 207K miles and I'm noticing a slight hesitation before it shifts -- when it's accelerating and approaching 40 mph (not sure if that's 2nd or 3rd gear). When I say slight, I mean 1 or 2 seconds. Just enough to catch my attention. Also, it does not do it every time. I have not figured out the pattern of when it happens. The O/D light of doom is definitely NOT flashing (that was my first indication of the tranny problem last time). Should I get this in to a transmission shop right away? Or is it normal for an older vehicle to hesitate when shifting? Thanks for any suggestions! [/QUOTE]
