If you till can drive it, take it to a local Trans Shop. Have then drop the pan and give you an estimate. Ya...it could be a new trans in your future !!!

When was the last time you changed the filer and fluid???

Mine ride did the same thing last year, but not quite that bad. I took it in, they changed the fluid and filter. Could not find anything major. charged me 80 bucks and it has not missed a lick since then ( crossing my fingers) A new trans with labor fees it approx $1,000.
