I have a 97 maxima gle with 187,000 miles on it. I am starting to get hard shifts/slips from 1st to 2nd gear. It all depends on how hard I hit the gas. If you slam the gas it will slip, if you ease the gas, it will shift hard. It also feels like the OD gear has a hard time staying in gear and when you let off the gas, the car slightly jolts. You only really notice this if you pay attension.
I didnt flush, but changed the filter and fluid some time back. Was like a year ago. It's been doing the 1st to 2nd even before the change. Its getting slightly worse.
Does this sound like bad bands/rebuild time? It has been some years since I did any tranny work, so the question is:
How hard is a rebuild? How reliable is the rebuild?
