Ok, this just started last night. Whenever i come from a stop or idle roll and I start to go the car acts like its going to die then goes fine. Then it does it going into 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc. Each gear just as it shifts the whole car shimmies and sounds like its going to stall then goes but its all real quick. I don't know if it's a tranny problem or what but does anyone have any ideas.

Oh, also the rpms drop more than usual at each shift then go right back to normal.

Vacuum leak?, unplugged mass air meter?, Give everything under the hood a once over.

Im with ibstrokin, also could be the idle air control valve but they usually die completly if thats bad, try cleaning it out though and see if it helps.:)

So you guys don't think its the tranny.

I've also noticed today that it only does it after the car has ran for awhile. Even if I shut it off and run in a store for a min it stops doing it for a bit.

Well, I cleaned out the IAC and it seems to have worked.
