Has anyone experienced this one, if so, any thoughts? After about 30-40 minutes of bumper to bumper traffic, when accelerating the RPM's go to 3000 and the car does not move any faster. It feels as if the transmission is not functioning and I am in neutral. It then "catches" and will continue on. This may happen 5 times during this interval. On short trips (time and distance)- no problem. On the freeway, no problem. One shop replaced the transmission fluid, a few months later another shop used more expensive transy fluid. With tongue in cheek, I took it to the dealer. They diagnosed it as a sensor after having it in the shop for a week. The very next day- same problem. After a second week in the shop- no answer. Other than B to B and 30-40 minutes of it, the car works fine. Thanks
