(reported on)

Cavalier 2.2L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 118,000 miles

Works fine when cold. Once warmed up city driving becomes a pain and highway merging becomes quite dangerous. Runs 1st gear from 0-30mph when it's supposed to shift to 2nd around 10-15mph then shifts to 3rd quite roughly. trans fluid level is perfectly on the line so unfortunately the trans is gone.
