No, I still don't have it fixed, although it IS better. My ATF was a little low and it helped quite a bit to top it up, but the problem is still there...most notably when it shifts from 2nd to 3rd.

Ic, i was going to change transmission oil and filter too and see if it makes any difference. But I'm afraid that ATF didn't fix it for you so I must assume it's probably the same for me cuz what you experiencing is exactly the same as mine even the gear 2 to 3. Do know if the dealer sells TPS inside of throttle body? I wonder if this has anyhing todo with TPS.

I'm really starting to think this odd shifting between gear shifting is caused by TPS in the TB, any opinions?

Draheart, I'm interested in your theory. I've been wondering that myself.

Ive looked around in different website to search for similar problems, because there was no info on this website or anybody else doesnt know what this is about. There were few threads from other places that talk about this.

I'm guessing that this problem might be the hesitation problem during acceleration which kind of feel like the car is sort of jerking because it looses acceleration and gains back after.

I wish I knew how to test the tps on my car, but I have no clue.
