You are posting this on a picture only thread... You should start your own thread and ask for help diagnosing in the title. The first thing you want to do is check the trans fluid level and make sure it is not low.

Nick, I hate those wheels on any other f body. I think they are overdone on muscle cars in general. But damn they look great on yours...

Thanks a lot! I definitely think it's because you don't see a lot of green F bodies with black wheels, let alone black TTM's. They're overdone on the more common color cars I think.

PGM FTW! Is that an actual Berger car, or just a badge? Are you located in MI?

No, not a real Berger car, and I live in Pennsylvania. I went to Camaro nationals last year in Maryland. There were some representatives from Berger Chevrolet there since the show had a GMMG reunion display. I talked to Dick Jacques for a while and mentioned that my last name is "Berger." He asked me to pull my license out, checked the spelling, and gave me a "by Berger" badge for my car!

It's the fifth gen version of the emblem, but it works perfectly I don't try and pass my car as some rare Berger Z28 from 1995 or something.

The best part is that I can say the car was modified "by Berger" which is true, because it's modded by me!

Here's a few pics from the rained out Camaro nationals last year. No LT1's but the pictures accompany my story:

They had all kinds of memorabilia that I wish I could've picked up. Hats, shirts, magazines, large metal signs, and a complete GMMG catback (sans tips) that I could've bought for $450 on the spot...Unfortunately, I had no cash with me that day. I even told my buddy the night before I went that if they had a GMMG catback there I would pay $500 for it. We both agreed that would be ridiculous and hard to believe, so I didn't take the cash. I kicked myself for weeks after that trip

Another extremely rare item they had for sale were 8 of the SS centercaps that came on the Berger cars equipped with Fikse FM5 wheels. If I recall, the Berger cars were the only GMMG cars that came with the Fikse FM5's, so those centercaps are pretty rare. Correct me if I'm wrong!

Dick Jacques from Berger did invite my friend and I to the all Chevy show at Berger last year, but we didn't have time to make it. It was during the 28th street metro cruise. Would've been really cool to come to that.

They made a smart move by choosing to do a lot of their cars in hardtop. I would love to have a hardtop Chevy or Pontiac*

I know quite a few people with T-tops that wish their car was a hardtop. I guess you either like T-tops or not. I like the smooth flowing look of mine, especially with the tinted windows. I really love hardtop 30th SS/Z28 cars. The stripes on the roof complete the look of the car in my opinion.

I guess the hardtop saves weight as well. My car is basically the lightest/cheapest LT1 Camaro you can get without having a 1LE I think. Manual seats, windows, locks, and mirrors; hardtop; basic stereo; cloth everything. It does have A/C though.

That nice flowing roofline:
