I just had a SAAB rebuilt automatic installed in my 92 900. I have noticed that the transmission seems to work well when warmed up but when cold seems to have a few "irregularities":
1 the first few shifts from 1st to 2nd occur normally at normal to easy acceleration but then for an instant will go into a kind of neutral range and downshifts back to first gear and will then shift to second after a moment. Kind of a "lazy shift" . If acceleration is a little more "spirited" then the shift from 1st to 2nd is kind of vague.
2) Transmission dosn't always down shift to 1st gear when coming to a complete stop and starts out in 2nd gear.
This is my first experience with a SAAB automatic which overall I have enjoyed.It is surprisingly peppy for a non turbo but runs at a higher cruise rpm and the gas mileage suffers considerable compared to the the 5 speeds.
Is this par for the automatics or is there a potential problem with the rebuild. Any comments or experiences common or otherwise would be greatly appreciated. thanks JK
