Hey guys, the other day in my 03 l322, the transmission started acting up. I parked on the side of road for around 20 minutes, and when I jumped back in the Range Rover and took off in drive, it would start to move and shift up a couple gears, but then instead of continuing forward it would only rev up on the rpm ( around 3500-4000 ), and then grab the transmission gear and jerk the vehicle forward. I tried driving up a hill and it was only revving on the RPM, and wouldn't even go an inch up hill.
Fast forward to today ,I let the Range Rover sit for a couple days, and hopped in to start trouble shooting, and it started driving fine. No missing shifts, or no RPM rev in drive. I took it up a couple hills off a cold start, and it worked beautifully. The transmission shifted smooth, and I cruised up the hills. I drove for around roughly 10 minutes, and then as I was finishing my climb of a small hill, at the very top the RPM revved up for a split second and the transmission caught, and then everything went back to normal. I did a U-Turn, and coming down the hill the transmission and RPM did the exact same as coming up.
Could this be the cause of low transmission fluid?
Thank you all.
