    Are you trying to say that the tranny is slipping a lot during the 2-3 shift?

    How are the 1-2 and 3-4 shifts? How many miles are on the car? How long has it been since the tranny has been serviced? How does the tranny fluid look?

        How is the 3-4 shift? Sounds like the trans is going.

          Is the tranny fluid full? And what condition is it in (what color is it)?

          It definetly sounds like the tranny is starting to go.

                Does the SES light blink right before, during, or right after the 2-3 shift?
