this is wat happend,
car shifts perfect like it should at right rpm's
this morning i parked the car on hard frozen ground,
later that day i wanted to leave that place and i could not move,car was sinken in defrosted soil, i had to rock the car back and forward by going in D and Reverse several times to escape. at the ride home it would not upshift from 2 to 3, only after moving into N and back into D it would upshift into 3 by occasion.
also did not upshift by handshifting. i could not go high in rpm because of snow on the road, but it was to high in gears , it would not upshift into 3 without fooling around with the stick.
this never happend before, i hope i did not kill the tranny by going in R and D to fast.

i have installed a kickdown bypass switch, but i almost never use them in traffic. seems that when activated the car does not upshift to last gear at slow speed.
the switch was accidently on , when i deactivated the switch the trans shifted smooth from 1,2,to 3 at slow speed. i just tested a verry short trip in my street, problem seems to be fixed.
