    Iba ung torque converter sa clutch plates. Pero pareho sila part ng transmission system. Either sa kanila ang magkaroon ng problem, hindi na aandar ng maayos ang system. Anyway, pinaka basic in transmission troubleshooting is try to change fluid and replace or clean filter first. Transmission fluid color should be red. If it is already color brown or dark color, it means it is already contaminated. Contamination are from wear and tear of transmission clutch plate that can affect the viscosity of the fluid that can result into sliding plates. Or minsan kasi hindi lang sapat ung looking for the color condition of the transmission fluid. You have to also check for the filter that may cause clogging resulting low pressure. Or baka talagang worn-out na ung 1st and 2nd gear clutch plate mo na kahit anong change fluid na gawin mo is wala na syang kinakapitan causing sliding plate.

    update: brought the car sa casa to check/correct the shifting, what they did was adjust the idling and tps (throttle positioning sensor). right now, all's well.

    nung nabasa ko yung post mo, pinaayos ko din sakin. what rpm ka na nag change gear? mine is 1800. which is normal naman, nasubukan mo na ba ng high speed? bukas ko pa kasi matry sakin sa slex. okay naman ba pag malayo? and sabi sakin the fuel consumption will be better nung inadjust na yung tps. about your idling, anong base idle mo while aircon is on?

A/T gear shift from 1st to 2nd
