I’ve been having this problem for a while now, whenever I drive the car from a full stop the transmission goes into the proper gear but when I slow down to 20 from say 50 and try to speed up again the transmission stays in 3rd gear I believe, even with throttle mid way the only way to get it to downshift is by stepping on the pedal 90% of the way in and it hesitates for a moment then goes all the way down into first. The only time this doesn’t happen is when the car is already moving past 30 and I try to pass someone, the transmission smoothly lowers the gear to give me that extra power.
I’m not sure if this is due to slack in the throttle cable or a faulty TPS
