2nd gear lagging or is it just me!!!???
2nd gear lagging or is it just me!!!??? Alright so i have a 99 A4 4l60e TA with a yank SS3600, 3.42 gears, bolt ons, blah blah blah..
The other day i was in traffic and moving slowly maybe 20 mph then i stepped on it to switch lanes my car climbed rpms before it hooked.. I was like damn, there goes my transmission. After playing with it a little i noticed it was 2nd gear. I was a little scarred it was gone but then i noticed it was still shifting 1..2..3.. on D so that gave me a little hope. I dropped it to 2nd and drove it slowly then stepped on it a little and i noticed it would clime to around 3500 rpms before i felt it pull hard. Could this be because of my yank SS3600???
I dont really step on it when driving so i dont know how long this could of been going on for. Oh also i havent replaced my spark plugs for a while, ive been waiting to replace my mids for longtubes. Tranny has about 20k on rebuild and 3k on stall. Oil looks and smells fine.
Thanks in advance for the help!!!!

Yeah its the first time I've ever noticed it. Last night I tried to floor it while going 30 mph and it rev'd to around 5,500 rpm and didn't pull. It drives fine under regular conditions I would say.
