Emergency Help Reqested!!! 850 1995

Help!!! We had a very bad down pour last night and now my 850 AT is shifting rough. I also got a couple of "shudders" on the freeway this morning. It seems that the tranny is in sport mode or something and won't shift before 2500-3000 no matter how littl throttle I give it.

Did something get wet? Anyone seen this before?

In any event, a tranny flush probably won't hurt. How long has it been since it was flushed?

Emergency Help Reqested!!! 850 1995

Like 6 months or so. I don't think that's the issue. The car was running VERY well and now, it shifts hard. When I have the windows down and go from park to reverse, it clunks into gear and I can hear a vacuum sound.

Any other ideas? I'll prolly flush it at the end of summer as I'm not in a financial position to do that right now.
