Brake Problem and maybe transmission

[ScottnAshley]

Hi ok here is my problems I have an 86 325

1. When I am driving either speed racer or just cruising along when it gets to shift into 3rd it shifts hard it also shifts hard into other gears too, and starts shaking and dosen't want to speed up, i'm thinking transmission? And theres enough fluid. Also when i go to put it in park when it goes in the reverse gear it almost stalls out not all the time but most and sometimes it does stall out.

2. My brakes I replaced all four and the rotors and when I break it feels like its pulling and when I stop a lil harder then normal my brakes go to the floor but I can stop, then if I tap them once more its normal. And I checked the fluid and it seems to be right.

Oh yah and one more thing

3. My glove box is not locked but it wont open.

Any help is appreciated I just would like to know if anyone has had these problems and can help.

Scott,
I am not sure about the issues with your transmission, however, with the brakes it sounds like you could use to bleed the air out of your brake lines.

air in the brake lines. bleed them. If that doesnt solve it, you have a faulty master cylinder.

as for the tranny, the hydraulic control unit may need servicing
