Seems kind of odd to me. Overnight something happened in the tranny. I have had no symptoms of anything going wrong.

it shifts into reverse immediatly, but as i give it gas it feels like i am towing a large boat or something.

1st gear is the same way. very sluggish. get rolling down the road and it shifts into 2nd fine and moves onto 3rd.

The engine runs fine. no trouble in neutral. Also no trouble with brakes being locked up, rolls very smoothly in neutral and the engine shut off.

If it were the modulator or associated vacuum line, would i have trouble shifting into 2nd and 3rd? wouldnt there be a hesitation to engage?

If it were the bands, it wouldnt wanna shift in to 2nd, right?

so what the hell is it?
 
How's the fluid look and how long since your last filter?
 
i think ive got a plug not working properly causing a lack of vacuum at low RPM, the lack of vacuum is affecting the modulator. putting new plugs in this weekend.
