Hello! I just bought Mazda Tribute 2002 4WD with 60 000 miles(110 000 km). I start noticing some rough shifting from 3 to 4 and 4 to 5 girs only for 1 to 1.5 seconds. I really hope, that it is not the transmission. What do you think that might be? Thank you!

Apart from trouble codes, have you checked the transmission fluid level and condition?
