99 Gst ( Automatic) won't switch to third gear. Any ideas to what the problem is?

Asked by 99_gst_champ Oct 12, 2010 at 08:38 PM about the 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS-T Turbo

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Ok well it shifts first and second, but once i hit the freeway i'm doing 60mph at
6000rpms in 3rd gear. How bad is it? And does that cause any problems keeping it at
6000rpms going 60.

either your trans computer or your trans itself has a problem. i woudlnt drive it on the freeway. i would get it checked out. prob cost you at least 100-200$ for a correct diagnosis.
