The car is slow to get into gear, especially reverse, and when it drives, it does like a little bunny hop burnout getting into gear, doesnt go faster than 40km/h, the revs go up and down. No warning lights are on on the dash… but i reckon the transmission oil is low.
Why is the transmission in 3rd gear and not shifting?

When does the EF Falcon go into overdrive?
Just got a problem with my EF Falcon. A little hard to explain but here goes. Whilst driving my car in economy mode at a constant 60km/h it won’t go into 4th (overdrive) (no aircon on) It stays in third. At 65km/h it still won’t change. The only time it will change is at exactly 70km/h and above.
