I have noticed that my Kia ProCeed's automatic transmission has been acting up lately. It shifts gears very roughly and sometimes gets stuck in a particular gear. What could be causing this issue and how can I fix it?
ReplyYou may want to check the transmission fluid level and condition first. Low or dirty transmission fluid can cause shifting issues. If that doesn't resolve the issue, it could be a faulty sensor or solenoid in the transmission. I recommend taking it to a trusted mechanic for a diagnostic test.
I had a similar problem with my Kia ProCeed and it turned out to be a faulty torque converter. It needed to be replaced to fix the shifting issues. I would suggest getting a second opinion from a different mechanic before making any costly repairs.
A failing transmission control module could also be causing the shifting problems. It's best to get it checked by a professional as soon as possible to prevent further damage. You can also try resetting the transmission control module first by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes.
