This problem has been re-occurring since we bought the car about once every 6 - 9 months. They said the problem was that the computer was learning the way I drive and it makes adjustments accordingly. My other car does not do this and have never experienced a problem like this. I have to take the car in to the Toyota Service Center to have the computer re-flashed to stop the problem. It is really scary when you get into traffic and hit the gas and nothing happens. Toyota opened a ticket on this problem but have no idea how to fix this issue.

My 2003 Toyota Camry transmission (gear) has been given me a tough time for over two months now. When it's about changing from gear 2
to 3 it makes a loud jerk or sound as if something hit it. It has been very inconveniencing. I took it repeatedly for repairs but no solution. I was
told to change the gear box, I bought another one but it still continued. Again I was advised to change the car brain box, I bought another one
and the problem stopped for about a week and later started again. Pls I'm desperate and confused on what to do next. I NEED YOUR URGENT HELP! I have also carried out a scan on my car and no positive result.
