For the last two months my 2002 4runner has been giving me issues with shifting. I've taken it to a couple shops and they're having a hard time figuring out what is wrong.
Symptoms: The shifting seems to act up when the engine isn't entirely warm. When I start driving and then stop at a stop sign near my driveway it almost seems like the truck puts itself into neutral because when I pull away from a "complete stop" the truck jolts into gear causing the rear wheels to chirp and slightly peel out (like a neutral drop into drive, the rpm's skyrocket). It usually only happens when the car isn't at operating temp, but I've noticed it even when its at normal temp.
The trans oil was recently replaced along with the filter. Could it be the torque converter, a bad transmission, or bad shift solenoids? Any advice/suggestions are appreciated!!
