If your car revs up without shifting and misfires, it could be a clogged catalytic converter. If the computer senses too much back-pressure it won't shift. Since the Clean Air Act requires an 8 yr / 80,000 mi warranty on cats, I'd recommend having this check out before you spend money on the transmission.
