OK, here's the deal. I own an automatic transmission 1996 Saturn SL1 with 116K miles on it. In the winter, it runs great, on a cold start (although I don't do this) I can floor it and it picks up great. Once summer comes around, the car is incredibly sluggish (no, I don't have the AC on) and when I use my automatic shifter from D to 2 or 3, you can shift the shifter, and nothing actually happens, at any speed I try it at. That makes me wonder if it's a trans problem. In the winter it works fine. In the summer, I can literally floor it and hardly move at all. This has happened all three summers that I have owned it. Anyone have ANY idea of why this is happening? Is this a trans problem?
