My Stagea Auto Is Stufed

[Burns]

I just had the 100,000km service which included having the trans fluid changed. Since then it seemed as if it was shifting slower and that sometimes the revs would flair between gears.

Then tonight under hard acceleration when changing from 2nd to 3dr it just let go, tacko hit 7,500 rpm and the power was not getting to the wheels.

Its fine changing between 1st and 2nd when I have the shift leaver held in 2nd and if I hold it to about 4,000rpm and then move it to drive with the throttle closed it changes into 3rd ok. The change into 4th seems ok as well.

The trans fluid smells like burnt rubber now.

I know MV in Adelaide are the experts on these but can anyone recommend someone good in Melbourne who can replace the bands and clutches with heavy duty items and fit a shift kit?

Firstly have you properly checked the fluid levels? coz, flaring rpm's between gears will happen if the auto trans oil is low or poor fluid supply. Also, are there any signs of reddish oil leaks?
