Shifting Problem with 98 Buick Regal

Hello Guys,

 

New here and figured i'd post this after searching with no results.

 

I have a 1998 Buick Regal GS. For as long as I can remember I've had a shifting problem where the car holds 2nd or 3rd gear until about 40mph. The RPMs are usually running at 2500 at this point. I've changed the fluid and filter so I am sure its not low. When I changed the fluid there were no shavings or anything bad and the fluid looked good. Is this normal for the transmission to be doing this or is there an issue I can fix?

 

Thanks for the help,

Adam

Yes it does it at all times. Its really killing the in town gas mileage on the car. I can cruise all day long at 39mph at 2500rpms and it acts like its okay, but when I hit around 40mph it'll shift.
