Check the fluid level in the transmission. Do you know if the transmission has ever been serviced?

The dipstick is located under the engine cover, close to the firewall, on your left side as you face the engine.I would have the transmission serviced if you are unsure about the maintenance.

People never check their service schedule, and they don't even bother to "locate" them on their own,

and at the end when the car dies they just blame the car.

Also, clean MAF, look at plugs, gas treatment.
