Harsh upshifts on electronically controlled Nissan transmissions may be caused by a faulty dropping resistor or a poor connection at the resistor.
In Toyota Previas with four-cylinder engines and A46DE transmissions, stacked shifts or no passing gear may be caused by a broken wiring harness or faulty throttle-position sensor.
GM introduced a new-design overrun roller clutch into the THM 4L80-E as a running change beginning in March 2001. We cover the parts affected by this engineering change.
