Ok..... here's the scoop:

Going into a tight corner at .... say around 30mph or slower... I like to SOMETIMES shift the auto trans down into 2nd AND then stand on the throttle coming out of the turn. Right after doing this, as I'm standing on the throttle, I shift the auto transm. back up into drive so that it can decide when to shift.

My 05 GT now has about 9,000 miles on it and up until now it has performed just fine while doing the above. NoW, it hangs up in 2nd and won't shift out of 2nd until I let off and slow the car down.

Anybody else having this problem? Have I screwed the transm Or is something going on with the ECM?

Yes....... I did do a search on this subject.

Thanks....... Walldiver

i think that the auto has an adaptive trans. it learns your driving style and performs they way you drive most. maybe the auto guys could help out.
