What he said. Also make sure the tire size is right in the tuner. Mine did that when the tire size was off in the tuner.

check the connector on the transmission. It’s a large one about 2 inch around and it goes into the top of the pan, can’t remember which side. I see issues like this all the time and work from water and crap getting in there, just don’t push the male plug into the valvebody when you reinstall it and get some dielectric grease.

you gotta watch the 4-5 shift on the 5spd ally and the 5-6 shift on the 6spds they are tend to slip and once the tcm senses a slip it goes into “limp mode” (stuck in 3rd) trans should be fine once cleared but will limp easier next time dont get on it in the high gears!
