I have a 1992 Mercury Tracer with a 1.9 ltr. For the last few months the transmission has been acting up. The other day I was on the freeway,the trans in over drive,it shifted down all by its self and wouldn't shift up again so yesterday I was on the freeway and it shifted fine. When can you tell a transmission is to far gone for a filter and fluid change to help !

see what color the trans fluid is. if dark brown or black then don't bother go directly to get trans overhauled. a fluid change wouldn't help I don't think from your description anyhow.
