6th Gen ('00-'05): Rpm jump in 4th gear

I would get it to a specialist and have them look over the car and check the data coming from it. It could be as simple as a solenoid, which aren't terrible to access. Or it could be a hard part starting to fail, which would require disassembly and fixing.

I had recently removed power from the car. Is that causing these codes or is it related to my problem? Also I got the problem to go away after repeatedly activating the TCC solenoid with a tester.

So after adding "Hotshots secret TSE" to the trans the issue went away. It has been a little over a week with no issues at all. Today it happened again though different than before. The car shifted into 4th (not sure how fast I was going maybe 45?) And the RPM gauge started jumping up and down between 1500 and 2000. And it wasn't soft either. It took about 1 second for it to cycle between 1500 and 2000 2 times! It did this cycle 4 times (about 2 seconds total) before I took my foot off the gas and reapplied it. After that there were no problems. Again this all started after I disconnected the battery for 10 minutes. I had no issues before that. I have a scanner and can check values of each component. Unfortunately I can't stare at the TCC slip info while driving. Does anyone have any other ideas or suggestions? Bad crank sensor, MAF, TPS, plugs, wires, coils?
