I noticed my new car is a REAL pig and didnt have any get up & go at all... I just thought that was what the old girl had, but today I started playing around and using the actual gear selections instead of just drive. I threw her in first and she just came to life.. Shifted into second and she surged forward again... Then I went back to drive and realized she is shifting WAY too early, I am talking never getting above 2K rpm no matter how far down I press the gas.. I have yet to get her to upshift simply by pressing harder on the gas. So my question is, what could be keeping the tranny from letting it go up over 2K rpm in drive?

Thanks,

Mike
