AUTO CLUTCH SLIP for lack of a better description.
i find it coming from 4th back to 3rd inmanual mode, if you drop back into 3rd and give it a bit of stick it feels like it slips for a second before it locks itself in,doesnt do it back to 2nd and doesnt seem to do it going up the gears. 20000 kms and it seems to have been only in the last 3 or 4 months since i put my genome mufflers on. maybe it did it before but now i can hear the exhaust it is noticable. any comments, thanks

I"m not sure, but with mine, I find that when I downshift 3-2 or 2-1, it is quite sluggish to downshift on.

Check that your AT fluid levels are right.
But to me it just sounds like the tourqe converter getting its shit together between gears. Mine's always been a bit slow between changes, I'm used to it I guess.
Plus when I'm using the manual shift the revs rarely drop below 4500 8)
