So i have a 2001 GT mustang with only 46000 on it. the trans has developed a shutter between 2nd and 3rd gear. I,m not sure a lot about automatics since this is my first stang with one . I'm wondering if i will most likely need a full rebuild of the trans and if so how much do shops generally charge for this ? Also seems weird it would happen with such low miles so i was also wondering could it be something simpler and cheaper then a full rebuild. thanks.

First thing you should do is change the fluid in the trans. Sometimes this will solve the problem.

Please explain at what RPM's and under what load this happens.

I did have the fluid and filter changed at around 35000 . i haven't driven it yet this year yet since the weather is crap here (wisconsin) , but as I remember it only happened if I was driving regularly not if it was under a load / under higher rpm's . I believe it was only when the car was going from second to third .
