There could be a number of reasons why a 2000 Chevy Lumina's transmission would make a bump after the car has been driven a while, and it is hot. The bumping is caused by a failing transmission, and a mechanic will need to see it.

It is pretty normal, but the feeling will probably ware off after awhile.
There is a service bulletin out on this problem (NUMBER: 21-015-05, GROUP: Transmission, DATE: September 01, 2005). It seems that fluid will drain from the torque converter after the vehicle sets awhile causing the slow to engage problem. According to Dodge, while it causes customer concern, it is not detrimental to the transmission. There is a new version of a transmission cooler filter which when installed mitigates the problem.
What happens after a transmission starts smoking, depends on what causes it to smoke. It could run for awhile, and just need new seals, or it could seize up and die.
Yes , it does hurt. Some people get an uncomfortable feeling .Like myself , when someone pokes me in my bellybutton ...It hurts ...& the uncomfortable feeling DOES NOT go away for quite awhile .So my option would be ...Just DONT do it.

Very good chance that the transmission needs to be rebuilt. Check the fluid level first to see if it needs some.

check vacum line to modulator, or replace modulator
I believe it has something to do with the "lockdown" where the transmission does not shift down causing the engine to stall....On the driver's side of the engine toward the front bottom there is a BLUE connection that if you disconnect the override should not occur.........have an 85 cutlass ciera have been driving it that way over a decade and solved the same problem for me..........try it......Cutlass~Cutee
