Default Auto Trans Slip???

Anyone with a autotransmision how do you know if your trans is slipping and what can you do to fix it??? Whenever im at WOT and it shifts from 1-2 It does something weird it sounds like its hitting the rev limiter and then it shifts real fast to second, Its kinda like i was driving manual and i shifted it really really fast, i kinda get a popping sound too.. could just be my imagination, or i might have the rev limiter set to low, i have it on my performance tune and i have it about 700 rmps lower than what the performance tune came , could that be the problem???

Your shift points are set hard on your SCT XCAL 2 probably.

Default Ok fixed it!

Just changed the rev limiter back to where it was... shifts perfect, let this be a lesson to auto guys with the xcal 2, do not lower the rev limiter more than by 2-300 rpms or else it will shift really really hard
