Good News! Got the trans replaced with a used one, now it shifts perfectly. And it didn’t cost me an arm and a leg and it least has a 3-month warranty on it.
Also found out one of my mounts catastrophically failed. Got it replaced and now it doesn’t shake when the car is at a complete stop.
So 700$ in and now my car is good as it was when I first got it!

Thanks, Well today marks the day I can no longer drive this thing. First it started out with 4th gear completely failing once warmed up. Now Today 3rd felt like no longer engaging so only Reverse, 1 and 2nd is operational. Mind you I never drove this thing on the highway only city roads and not very far from home (5 miles).
I’ll let you all know how everything goes after I just replace this darn thing!!

Too late lol. It did help a slight bit but its still slip central when warmed up just not as bad. Im thinking either 3rd or 4th is out, just gonna get a low mileage trans to replace this one as 1700-2000 at once for a rebuilt is a bit out of my league, and being its 301,000 miles dont see it being very cost effective. Does anyone know the going prices for used or remanned ones?

Yeah, I have a deep feeling its gonna end up being a bad transmission. I wont have any way to fix it till December/January anyway so gonna try to as long as i can prolong this one before it finally bites the dust, just hope it dont leave me stranded!
This weekend im going to flush (refill it 2 more times as i already changed it once) and pray it dont make things worse. I didnt see any adnormal amount of metal in the fluid, and it did improve for a short while when i did change it. Long as it can last 2 more months!!!
EDIT: Caught it!!! It did it and i got it recorded…

[video width=550 height=309 type=youtube]r3299EVtA50[/video]Today it got a little worse, now it seems like at times it once it hits 4th, it will sometimes in say 20-30 seconds start acting up and downshift back into 3rd causing my car to rev up to 5000-6000RPMS (going 45) and after it does this the only thing i can do is just drop my speed down to 40 or less as if I lost 4th gear.
I’ll try to get monitoring information to show the jumps, but in the meantime ill attempt to just assume its that sensor and just replace it. But I dont know where its located.

I drove it today but shifted through the gears manually (Started from 1 and worked my way up to D4), drove fine tho it did feel sorda rough (jerked me a little forward) but absolutly no slipping, no revving up 1 more rpm then shift which it does alot cold between 2-3 and 3-4. Could this sensor being bad cause weird shifting problems?
Also where is this sensor located, im assuming its not the same thing as the VSS.
