Ok first off,...Wsup guys. Long time no Post(Sorry,..Been busy with work,Heating season ya know). Well here it is again. I just went and spent $662.84 on the '91 9K CD. I had the oil level sensor replaced(leaking BADLY),oil change,coolant flushed & filled,low temp. thermo & thermo fan switch installed, TRANNY FLUID flushed & filled. And my tranny is doing the exact same thing. Upshifting way too early in the RPM range,And sometimes(more often than not),when I nail it to pass it sounds like my car is gonna shut off(stall). It'll hesitate,slip into neutral,rev then kick back into gear,and it'll do this a few times. Now in the morning when I leave for work and its nice & cold outside the auto box feels fine.But after its nice & warmed up,say running for about 20mins or so,the tranny will act up again. I have the suspicion that its a bad accumulator spring. When I brought it to BECK SAAB(<<PPL IN NY. STAY AWAY FROM THEM!!! RIP-OFF ARTISTS). I had specifically TOLD them to take the valve body off and check my springs,They SAID they did but in reality they didnt do anything but flush the fluid(BASTARDS!!). After about a day or two of have the car back and "repaired" it all came back again. The slipping and revving,not getting REV. gear the first time I put it in REV.,etc,etc....

Now this is what leads me to believe its a busted spring. One night I was out cruising,ABUSING the HON-DUH owners(HEHEHHEE). I raced this kid in a civic,and beat him bad. So to get back at me he came up on my side and swerved hard at me. I had to swerve into oncoming traffic to avoid him. He then took off like a bat outta hell. I chased him for about 2 miles,when suddenly I heard a "pop" and my car started to slip gears,upshift as it pleased,and rev wildly(bouncing). I pulled over shut it down,checked my lines & hoses,all OK. When I restarted the revving was gone,but the rest of the problems persisted. Ever since then,Ive had nothing but mis-shifting,random upshifting,and that slip-rev-pop back in gear problem.

So what do u guys think?? Bad sping or BLOWN TRANNY? I really dont wanna get rid of my car or buy a new tranny,just to find out it was a few bad springs. Any ideas/help/insight?? Anyone else ever had this problem??
