how to know if transmission is going bad?
hey guys so i recently started paying more attention to the shifts of the car. and i notice that the car sometimes holds the shifts longer and shifts smoothly and sometimes quick and hard! is this normal? i mean the gas pedal is the same both times. you guys have it too?

Maybe time for a tranny fluid change?

Agreed, sometimes the wrong weight transmission oil will also cause this.
