Hi, so I have a 14 gt auto that is giving me issues recently shifting to 3rd at partial throttle, if I hit the gas at maybe 30-60 percent the rpms go way high like it grabs the gear than let's go, after that the rpms come down cutting my throttle completely, now I don't have any slippage issues as of now, it just doesn't want to grab 3rd at times, could this be a tune issue or an actual transmission issued I had it tune about 3 months had no issues till now, car had 77k miles? Any suggestions current mods are boss intake, jlt cai, and x pipe.

car has stock converter in it correct? if so, i would try checking/changing tans fluid. i changed mine and it was a little low after new fluid. Similar problems to yours. rough shifts, hanging rpms, ect.

i put in an aftermarket converter, i would check the fluid while the car is hot and running, tough to do on the ground without burning yourself

The 6R has a dipstick, it's inside tie aluminum cap on the passenger side.

As others have said it's a bitch to get at with the cats in place bit doable.

You use MERCON LV not SP. Although some have used SP without issue.
