Hello all, recently I've noticed my trans having issues downshifting when I slow down. Sounds like it can't decide what gear it wants. In some cases, it doesn't go into a gear at all, and takes a second for the gear to engage. This is a 2012 with 50k miles. Could this be a fluid issue? I haven't worked on cars in many years, and generally take it to a Nissan shop for service. While the oil is changed regularly, the Trans fluid has not been changed. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
