99 camry problem

Hi everyone,
I am back again.I have a small problem.When i am driving my car and accelerating.Lets suppose it chnges gear at 20,50,80.So when i drive up to 40 the speed limit and i lighten the pressure on the gas pedal what happens is the car changes gear anyway so causing a pull forward(surges forward).I suppose its not supposed to do that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
KENNETHK

See mine was very bad.I changed it a couple of months ago to synthetic at mr lube and i dont know what they did but the transmission was slipping alot.So i took it to a garage and they told me that the synthetic fluid might have caused it.So i changed it back to dexron III but he only drained it out didn't use any machine to remove the entire fluid so i am thinking its not fully out (synthetic fluid).Now its a slight bit better.What i am thinking is maybe i should use t-technology to remove 100% of the fluid and then fill it up with dexron III fluid.
Maybe that would solve the problem.The garage asked me to drive a few days and bring it back and then he will assess the situation again.
Regards,
KENNETHK
