I am having a problem when my ls shifts from 2nd to 3rd it acts like i am running over speed bumps but if i give it some gas it goes away? Does not do this all the time it seems intermittent? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance!

tried to run the datc test i believe it gives no error codes or i just cant figure it out i hear all the doors opening and closing but no display codes on the readout? I read you hold the off and defrost which is below the ac button then push auto within 2 seconds?

Ok after some searching here i found the dccv has a high failure rate but my heat issue does not jive with the examples of the problems other people have had? I start my car from a cold start and it takes about a half an hour for it to start blowing heat once the heat does work its fantastic ac...
