My three ltr auto runs fine but seems to be reluctant to change into top gear. now it might be me as i have never had an auto before. i have to get it to about 2750-3000 rpm to get it to change or if i sustain 2500 for about 30 seconds it changes. Any coments will be welcome.

after experimenting i think i am getting top gear because if i knock overdrive off and run to about 50 mph when i switch overdrive back on it immediatly drops in to another higher gear. Then later drops into another higher "gear " at about 55-60 mph. is this the torque converter locking up. By the way what the hell is the torque converter and what does it do??????????

Do you have the ECT switch (at the front of gear levers) switched to normal running? If it's set to 'power' the gear changes take place at higher revs.Brian
