Pull codes using the procedure in Techinfo. All you need is a paperclip. Let us know what you find.

When was your last tranny service? You may be due for a full system flush.

What speed were you at? 10? 100?

yep on I-25 at 75 and after doing monument hill at 90 hehehe :wink:
but it is not the first time after i shut it down and let it set for a few minuets it acts normal

Well, if you shut it down and it acts normal, then its probably a computer malfunction.

Maybe a bad speed sensor. Mine some times will jump out off over drivegoing down the free way also. I heard the it is a characteristic of the 4lt60e

new tps and stedy needel no jumping

How hot was your car running?

I was driving a 92 sse once after having it looked at by my mechanic. Whole thing was crap, but when it got hot (over 200*) the tranny started slipping. It would accelerate to about 3000rpm in gear, then the car would hold that speed. The RPMS would waiver, and then go up, but the car would continue going the same speed. At one point I couldn't go above 30, which is good because on I-494 we weren't going faster then 30. I got a good half hour look at an old Malibu ss :wink:

I pulled over, let it cool, and it actually shifted and was transmissioning like it should :wink: So I finished taking it back to the owners. I told them what happened, and drove my family's camry home.
