7at. Weird behaviour.

It also sometiems makes a tiny clicking noise. And ocassionally will 'slip' when changing... or what I think others call "flare"... it will jump around 300 revs up before going down and setting on 4th (again... also bullet fast).

This also occurs only when the accelerator is at load... and knly at around 3-4k revs... If I drive barely touching the pedal or if I up shift higher than 4500, it shifts normally.

The car was also scanned just 3 months ago for an unrelated issue; nothing came up.

Weird part is that... it only has 30k miles.

So if that gear is starting to slip... at 30k? And if it needs transmission fluid change or... umm... flush... at 30k ?

Those abrupt shifts dont really clunk... sometimes in general... and on other gears... but I think that happens nornally at times given these transmissions can a few times be a bit dim-witted... its just a tiny click.

There are also sometimes HUGE delays in manual mode when downshifting going really slow... from 2nd to 1st...
But thats always happened... mentioning it just in case.

Other than that... it's always up and down shifted normally and without issues... responsive...normal quick...no noises... and it still does... save for 3-4


Thoughts?

Thanks for reading.

Forgot to mention... the car has this common issue where when at normal operating temperature (oil at 200-220), it loses noticeable power... perhaps around 10-15%. Mentioning also in case it points to something.
