Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a 2001 C2. When I'm at a slow speed in a higher gear(3rd gear at 15 mph) if I excelerate hard the rpm's rise quickly, can't hold the rpm's and drop down 4-600 rpm's without shifting gears. The problem is much more prevelent in the morning when the car is cold. As the car warms up the problem exists less and less and will (slip) in fewer gears. It seems the transmission is slipping or the torque converter is not hooking up properly. The slipping is happening more often and in more gears. I just came back from my dealer after having the shop foreman ride with me. It was easy to duplicate the problem for him. He thought it was shifting into 4th, but then realized the gear light never moved from 3-4 and the car didn't shift from 3-4. I hope I've explained this properly. The car is going into the dealer tonight. My warranty is up in 10 days and I want this corrected before it expires. Has anyone else had this problem and what do you think the problem is. Thanks a lot Ken

As long as it is in the dealer and logged in by the day it expires you can exceed your warranty time to get your car back.
