Why Is My Automatic Transmission Slipping?
If you have an automatic transmission and it "slips" while you are driving it-that is, the car engine revs without the power going to the wheels-the most common cause (though not the only possible cause) is low transmission fluid. If the slipping is caused by low fluid, it will get worse as the transmission gets hotter.
Why Is My Manual Transmission Slipping?
A standard ("manual") transmission uses fluid too, but leaks aren't a common issue; a standard transmission could lose all its fluid and never slip at all, though eventually it would lock up while driving down the road. If you have a standard transmission, and it's slipping-the engine revs but it doesn't transmit power to the wheels-the problem is usually in the clutch.
Further down in the article I discuss how to diagnose this problem.
Sounds Like Low Transmission Fluid to Me
Have the transmission pressure tested to see if it is OK. The shift solenoids may be weak or the valve body may be worn enough to not allow pressure to build. You might just want to rebuild the transmission.
I believe you have a slipping gears and looks like the gear box need overhauling. Take it to an Automatic Transmission Specialist to Diagnose.Do not leave it and use it any further,surely you will cause serious damage and cost.
All slipping transmissions do that. The turbine gave up the ghost, and if not repaired soon, the additional strain on the transmission may cause it to fail too. Seemingly turning off the engine allows the trans fluid to cool off a bit, and there is also additional pressure when you restart the engine, giving the transmission the possibilty to work decently for a few yards, but as soon as the fluid overheats again, it starts slipping.
the transmission is failing, it is losing hydraulic pressure either from a failed pump or a defective seal inside the transmission, by now the clutches are fried as well, so a tear down and rebuild is the only thing to do to fix this.
