My prado has been in the family for 7 years now but i have noticed in the last 6 months the transmission isnt as responsive.
It started off intermittently (1 in 5 times) not kicking down after driving for 5-10min. then got more common (every second time), until it just wouldnt kick down at all from 1 min after start up.
Ive had it serviced last week and a full transmission flush yesterday and it is alot better but still wont kick down into first gear like it used to.
My first question would be to see if other peoples prados kick down into first gear (say foot to the floor at 50km/h), or am i asking too much.
Second is what is causing this and how do i fix it?
Its a 2000 petrol/lpg 3.4 GXL 250,000km
