npfd Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 97 CS with 219k kms, the car is on the way out in several months anyways.. the Transmission fluid is fine, as some of you may have seen the other threads that the timing chain gasket is leaking etc.... I've noticed this problem, a few weeks ago, maybe even up to a month. With ~50% throttle off the line, or while even coasting at 20 km/h, the engine and car will speed up, but dip at 2k rpm, then at 3.5k (I think these are numbers..) ,car struggles, I know it does two dips, like the rpms drop and car slows down too.... but when coasting at 60km/h or more, and I Floor it, no problem, the rpms kick up and all is good....... is this a 1st gear problem? transmission toast? or torque convertor? btw I don't know much about transmissions, even Torque convertor.. I don't really know that well... I did read up some threads about ignition issues.. but I don't think it applies to this....
