Alright guys. I've looked through pretty much all the threads and I haven't seen this question asked yet...

My SL2, with automatic tranny is doing something lately that it hasn't done before. I have my ideas, but wanted to throw it out to you guys first. Basically, if I accelerate from a stop I experience a "hesitation" between 2 and 3 gears. You really have to listen and watch the tach to see it, but its there. If you watch the tach, you can see the needle drop back slightly as it climbs and reaches a point. it doesn't happen at the same point every time, but it does seem to happen shortly before it shifts to third. Its not an earth-shattering experience, but i want to deal with it before it gets worse. I just changed the tranny fluid.

My thoughts? I think that it is a selenoid. My question is, what do you people think?

Hope to hear back soon!
