Got in the gas last night and noticed smoke, I pulled over (ended up with a flat tire too but that's another story lol) and popped the hood. Well the tranny dipstick had pushed out of the tube and was spraying out tanny fluid that's what the smoke was from. Now the car acts like it does not want to shift into 3rd. It revs really high like 4K before it will shift to 3rd and isnt pulling very hard, like a slipping clutch. All other gears feel and shift fine. I checked the fluid level and it looks to be right. What could cause only 2nd gear to do this and all others be fine?
2-3 shift problem

anyone?...it's a pretty new transmission, Extreme automatics stage 2...i dont think it should be burnt up already. Need to get this figured out soon, could this be something internal, if i drop the pan is there anything i need to look for or at specifically? any help is appreciated, thanks.
I've had it for a while, a little under a year i think, but low miles on it due to a deployment and not driving it. I'm sure if it needs a rebuild Lonnie will help me out, He had great customer service when i bought it. I just really hope it could be something I can fix, not sure what specifically i can look for that might cause this though
...guess I'll drop the pan this weekend and poke around having no idea what im looking at and hope for the best :redface:.Same here, that's the one of the things i have never messed with...oh well, it will be worth a shot to see what i can figure out. Maybe I'll get lucky.
