So on my way home from school, I noticed that my trani was starting to stutter coming out of first and second gear. It doesn't happen in third or fourth, and after the engine starts to heat up it stops. What could be wrong be wrong and would a McDonald's salary be able to afford to fix it?

 

Please define "stutter" exactly. "Coming out of first and second gear"? There is a 1-2 shift, a 2-3 shift, etc. Have you checked your fluid level and condition? Miles on the trans?
