    Did a google search on the AX4N trans. Doesn't sound like a very good tranny. If you scroll down here: http://www.autosafety.org/article.php?scid=100&did=564, there is a TSB on no 3-4 shift. Are you getting an trouble code light? You may be able to clear the codes by disconnecting the battery, or PCM fuse. If not, find someone with a scan tool.
