I just bought an 04 buick rendezvous, its been driving great for the past month. well today I noticed that when it shifts it shifts hard, almost feels like im hitting a small bump or something. Its still running and shifting normal just now when it shifts its like i said it feels like ive hit a bump. I dont have any warranty on it. I dont know much about cars but could this be the start of my transmission going out or could it be something else? Theres nothing else going on with it at least not yet anyway.
There are folks who can do a flush job on your tranny and put in new fluid, but they charge as much as a couple of hundred bucks for that. Usually the giveaway that you have a potential bad problem is if the trans. fluid smells burnt. If it's merely dirty looking then most of the time changing the fluid will work really well.
check your transmission fluid
