Probably the shift solnoid is fucked up. The hydraulic system controls the shifting of your transmissions and shift solnoid will control the fluid that goes into the valve bodyof the transmission; directing where the transmission fluid where it belongs. HAVE A PRO CHECHED THAT OUT.
try adjusting your trans bands, i had same problem and adjusting the trans bands solved the problem

i just bought a new one about 6 months ago and it was burn so i change the fulid and it still won shift the way it use to dose this mean i need to bring it to services or need to buy a new transsmision
not if u have a 1990’s and below car. My car is only worth in mint condition 1500. My tranny cost 1300 to buy.
its cheaper to fix it
better to just fucking buy a new car for the cost of a tranny.
that cost the price of a new transmission about 2000 usually then whatever they charge for labor
