Default Re: Transmission Downshift Problem (2001 Automatic)

]Some clues, please - how many miles? 65,000
What year? Title says 2001 automatic
The transmission is computer-controlled, might be that. I did mention that the first time this happened that it was the transmission valve-body that had to be replaced. That was 5-10,000 miles ago.
Could be the clutch packs. I appreciate you throwing these ideas out. I am more looking to see if this is a reoccurring problem with PT's in general. Does not seem right to have to spend $800 every year or 2 on a transmission.
Could need new transmission fluid. Tried this the first time. Did not help and had to have the valve-body replaced.
