Sometimes when I'm driving and my Car wants to move from gear 2 to gear 3, It revs up to 4000rpm and then the gear switches.

This happens randomly. The transmission fluid is guaged and it still smells nice. It's a bit brownish.

Every other thing works fine no delayed engagement whatsoever.

Have your transmission diagnosed.
It's most likely a shift solenoid issue.

I scanned it but no error code. Transmission hasn't been tampered with before neither is the engine. I'm so scared of this kazeems ruining my Gearbox.

Enjoy your ride and plan towards a drain and refill. That is the sign from the gods.

Your AT fluid should be pink.

That's why I said "diagnosed" not "scanned". Diagnosing is more than just plugging in the scan tool, you need a gear expert to look at it. Cause transmission can be very tricky.

Hello guys. I have been driving all day up to this point.

So some minutes ago, My Car was heavy /delayed shifting..

It'll rev but drop, it'll do this about 3/4x before picking...

Could be this be the atf? And someone recommended total atf..

Below is the Result from the scanner.

The codes on the screen has been fixed. I lost power on the dash, window and AC wasn't cooling. This is the second time it's happening. My rewire did sonething but what's a permanent solution.

Regarding the gear oil, it's not guaged at all. Below the first mark. I'll park it now until I get the atf..

So, if you look at the 1st and last fault code, you'll see there's an electrical fault that affects the gear selection. This may have been caused by; Defective transmission range sensor, Shorted wiring for reverse position sensor or Faulty brainbox. I'll recommend to service the gear (because you have brownish oil) first, service the shift solenoids as well, inspect the electrical system (look for short or open circuits) of the gearbox.
