Pontiac Torrent

[G-512183]

Developed a new problem I noticed the other day. It is hesitating changing to 3rd gear. Any help appreciated

do you have a check engine light on?
have you ever dropped the transmission pan and changed the filter?

No pan to drop. But, you can do drain/fill. It might help shifting. Af33 trans. Made by toyo. Pretty good trans. Use toyo t-4a fluid. Not ws fluid.

Check engine light on. EGR is open
Canister has leak or bad valve.
No Transmission code
Did change trans fluid. Toyota Trans T7 takes T4 fluid. Can not remove pan. It has no bolts.

Egr usually fails electronically and you get awd codes. Changing egr is good way to fix associated issues. Odd as it seems. Egr valve is cheap.
