POWER TRAIN - AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
02/01/1994109/04/1991
 Transmission slipping due to defective/worn inner d ring on clutch piston which is mentioned in the 04-72 service bulletin. mjs
 My transmission periodically hangs up in second gear. also, it will periodically hang up in passing gear. this problem occurs more in warm weather than in cold. if it hangs up, i must come to a complete stop and reaccelerate to go through the gears. if this does not work, i must let the car cool down. i was told by a automatic transmission specialist that a valve body in the transmission is the culprit and is a problem on nissans with the same transmission. i bought the car used with 70,000 miles on it. i have had this problem since the first summer of ownership.

 This problem is dangerous (and recall-worthy) because it leaves the car without power, suddenly, at freeway speeds. more information is available on several websites such as: http://www.se-r-list.org/fifth.gear.phtml. thank you.
