Now this may sound weird but in 3rd gear and 3rd only, my revs won't go above 5,100, it just hangs there WOT till the shift to 4th. I haven't done any diagnosis yet because its not to crucial to my daily driving and i'm a bit busy lately, so i figured i'd post and see what you guys think. Thanks for your replys

you're at WOT and it gets stuck at 5100? like it's not making power, or it's cutting off? what exactly is happenning?

This the auto or the manual? Selina had a similar problem with the stock auto, not quite exact but similar, and they ended up scrapping the whole tranny at the dealer and giving her a new one, under warranty of course..
