Check the fluid. It usually tells all. Is it low? Is it burnt? Is it smelly? Does it sparkle?

^^^ is right. i got a auto 03 oz and it does that sometimes depending on my mood from the past couple hours/days. it revs pretty high most the time for me though.

So your saying that annoying failure to shift when expected is actually by design?

The adaptive shifting won't cause a lack of shift. It is really just a shift point map, but you can't go outside the stock maps without some form of ecu modification. If you are having trouble with a lack of shift I suspect that either airlinevomitbag is right and your fluid is low, or you put too much stress on the torque converter and it is damaged.
