Usually that's the first sign of a transmission going bad.Overdrive sometimes goes out first.Also it could be a bad transmission sensor.A diagnostic check should tell you so.The sensors are cheap and easy to install. In older GM cars with the TH350 tranny, the "kickdown" cable could also be broken or not adjusted properly.
You don't say what kind of car you have and some don't shift at higher speeds. Adjust the throtle cable and that should help if possible,.
It could be a throttle linkeage problem or a transmission valve body problem.
the transmission will shift to higher gear
It is called the passing gear.
My 1998 Nissan sentra wony shift into high gear
Say what?! Pass gear?? Who pass gear anymore?
check your transmission control relay.. it might be stuck..
The car isn't necessarily shifting into neutral its just staying in a lower gear and not shifting to the next gear, check your transmission fluid.
How do you adjust a transmission passing gear cable on a 95 chevy tahoe /
if by "passing gear" you mean, when you put your foot down to pass, the transmission goes down a gear, then it is not actually slipping. it just means it is trying to go back into top gear. sounds like you need to back off a little and learn how your car operates correctly by passing gear, do you mean the transmission goes back a gear when you put your foot flat to the floor? if so your transmission is not slipping, but trying to go into correct gear for the speed you are travelling.try not flooring it and let the transmission do its job. PS: "D" on shift slector does NOT mean DRAG race. it means drive
A bad transmission gear can cause your 1999 Nissan frontier to shift hard. Low transmission fluid can also cause the transmission to shift hard.
No it will shift slow.
