Any more ideas or diagnostic tests we could do?

I believe you may have a bad second gear, or on an auto, a bad two-three accumulator. This is what happens when you're driving near the speed at which the transmission shifts: a seal wears out in the accumulator, the drop in pressure druing the shift can cause it to shift back into second, which kicks the pressure up, making it shift into third, which drops the pressure halfway through the shift, dropping it back into second, and so on ...
