when cruising in 5th gear the transmission seems to slipping. only when holding my speed, just cruising at 50mph for example, never under actual acceleration. the way i describe how the car is acting is pretend you are just driving on dry roads and the traction control kicks in for no reason. that’s what this feels like. the rpms drop to idle for the split second that this happens and the car “jerks”. the rpms do not flare. i’ve read about the OD servo bore on this transmission going bad and this symptom happening. any suggestions on how to fix this problem? no check engine light or anything by the way.
