Spooled_Starion Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) It shifts great driving around town but say I'm doing 40 and want to accelerate to 65 getting on the freeway. If it goes into 4 th gear ( due to driving behind someone slow) while just cruising it won't downshift unless I floor it for a few seconds and it accelerates really slow says im making 8lb boost at like 1800 rpm but has absolutly no power at all and won't downshift for like 5 seconds then it will and just take off. Any idea why, is this common? It has a rebuilt tranny. OD is off Edited October 18, 2011 by Spooled_Starion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cole Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 That same problem is happening to me right now, I'm just wondering if these trannys are just not any good. Can you redline your engine? or will your tranny shift before it can get there? When you hit 40, what's your rpm? does it kinda slur down to 1500? If so, then something is wrong with the OD as well just like mine. I guess your following my thread anyways? lol. I would say just take a look under the starquest faqs for a while. That's what I plan on doing when I get home from work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rabbit1 Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 sounds like you may need to clean out your kickdown switch by the throttle pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
