doesn't necessarily mean trans problems. there are many inputs that control shift points. have shop that performed work double check that they didn't leave any wires or hoses unplugged and maybe recheck timing.

I am not sure, it could be clutch, may be pressure plate is wearing out.Talk to some reputable mechanic.

We asked one of our associates who has owned Toyotas and works on cars to help with your istuation. He suggests that sometimes your car may not shift out of first gear up until 3500 rpms. It depends on your rate of acceleration. It?s a tough one to diagnose, and unfortunately, you may be better off taking it to a dealer or mechanic to get it checked out. If you?re having shifting issues, it?s more than likely going to be a computer thing.
