Hi Guys, I am a relatively new to Expy's ...my other car is Saab 9-3 ...I was hoping maybe some of you experts can shine some light into my the weird issue I am having.

My expy's has 150K but has been cared very well (service records past 3 years)...the car shifts hard at 40-50 ...so I guess that's a shift from 3 to 4th? when it's shifting sometimes, I could hear a "Clunk" enough to vibrates the whole car....the fluid is pink with no burning smell...the rest of the gear shifts smoothly....based on my reading thru this forum ...is it the Solenoid? or the PCM just need calibrating? or something else.

I drive gently, just feathering the throttle basicly ...can't afford driving this pig like my Saab 9-3 haha....anyway thank's a bunch.

Also I want to install a trans temp gauge...any recommendation?
