Transmission Shifting issue: need help please

[rowhard]

mine has never missed a gear but i do find that sometimes that the shift point of 30mph in this vehicle makes me have to go a little faster just so i can get into the higher gear - in other words, if i drive at 26 mph it will never upshift unless i go faster - if i go 30mph it will upshift and then i can drive 26mph as long as i want in that same gear

mine does the same. I just back off ever so slightly and it will upshift. Acts like it is a vacuum problem but I checked the book and no reference to vacuum mentioned.

Yep, that sounds like the problem Im having.
I was able to catch it in action- but its a very shaky video (sorry about that)

It even trips the "check trans" light. You can see how it misses the shift at 27 mph, then revs up to trip the check trans. It usually doesnt go as far as tripping the check trans light, but you get the idea of what is going on.

If it was just a sporadic thing, I would not care as much. But it happens multiple times, EVERY time I drive my car. Its very frustrating, and Im worried Im causing damage to my transmission.

If anyone has any suggestions, Im open to ideas.

Does it make any difference if you change the current position of the Power Mode switch? (Didn't see it's indicator light on the dash so assuming you're running full time with it off?)
