NEW TRANNY PROBLEM <long>
well, here's the situation, which I believe spells the end of my svx days..... just got timing belt replaced and alternator re-aligned, and car was running great for about 2 days...
The shifting a week ago went like this.. (i believe)
car would go from first stright into 3rd, and stay there, even on highway. 60 mph@4000rpm...
If i put the car into 3rd while driving in D, i could feel the car pull back a little....
ANYWAY
last night on my way home i stop at a light, when the light turns green i go.... first no prob, then rpms pinned and car wouldnt move. i push it home, try it a few more times, to no avail.
so this morning i start the car, let it warm, and put it in D... IT catches! i proceed down the block, 1/4 mile or so, and RPMs pin again, not moving the car at all... IM STUCK!
until i turn the car off for about 30 seconds, restart, put the car in D, and voila! 1/4 mile more until it happens again.
i could choose to repeat this every few minutes, nut id rather take the bus....
please tell me there's an easy fix for this!!!
