So this has been happening recently, i believe its the transmission but not sure, i'll make a video tomorrow and post it. Ok so when ever im coming to a stop, right when im almost at a dead stop feel like a slip in the transmission, but it doesn't do it if the OD is off. I just want to know if it is indeed the transmission or whats the deal ? cars an automatic too btw
 
First thing you should do is check your transmission fluid level. If it is low you could just add more until it is at the correct level, but more than likely if it's low your transmission fluid hasn't been changed in a while so you should just change it along with the filter and a new transmission pan gasket. Here is a good write up. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/articles-drivetrain/297359-changing-your-fluid.html. Changing your ATF is always a good maintenance procedure to do and doing it could also solve your issue.
