what else can cause this 2-3 shift to flair up ,free reving . have to let off gas to shift ?

There should not be a flare up on the 2-3 shift, there is nothing that releases before 3rd comes on. If the 3rd clutch does no apply, it should just feel like it stays in 2nd. You have to have a scanner on it to see if the computer is commanding the shift or not.

i had ae scanner on it no codes.
it is intermittent problem driving today shifts fine, took to tranny shop a week ago after fluid and filter change and they could not find anything either ,drove home from tranny shop that night and it did it to me again . tranny shifts smooth normal .

sounds like it could be the solenoid pack mine just did some wild crap to and it was doing some of the same crap reving sticking in 2nd and then would shift in and out of 3rd and all kinds of weird crap and it was a intermitent problem i just ordered a new trans going to put it in this week
