| Description of the problem | The transmission light has been on pretty much since i got the vehicle. Have taken it in to orileys and was told codes were either transmission or firing. I was told to change the coil packs. This seemed to fix the issue of it bogging down while driving. Like it wouldn't shift. If u put it in manual it would work. Coil packs fixed all that. Now my wife drives vehicle in detroit traffic and the vehicle just slips out of gear while driving. Has been very dangerous while in flow of high speed traffic. Vehicle like wanting to stop immediately and almost get rear ended. |
