I have a 97 EL Fairmont Ghia V8, bought it new and had all services done as per book.
Now the problem. Driving on highway at 100km/hr flat section of road and revs increase from 2000rpm to 3000 rpm. Then drop down to 2200rpm then back to 2000rpm. It seams to do this on a long trip after about 3/4 - 1 hours driving. Any help/advise will be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

If your talking about a Auto? i would check the bands on your gear box...or it might need a service |

Yes it is an auto, it's also on gas but the problem is there on gas or petrol.
I was hoping that a service would fix it (fingers crossed), when you say check the bands, does that mean drain oil and drop the pan? |
