| Description of the problem | After having driven my nissan quest to a friend's house, i was attempting to back out of the driveway. When i shifted into reverse, there was a loud thud from the transmission. I was able to back out of the driveway, but when i shifted into drive, there was again a loud thud. I accelerated and although the engine rpm increased, the van hardly moved. I should have been going 25mph, but was going only 5mph. I disengaged the overdrive button on the shifter and attempted to accelerate again. I was only able to go 10mph and the engine rpm indicated 3500rpm. I pulled the van over to the curb and came to a stop. I shifted into 3rd gear. There wasn't as loud of a thud, but there was a noticeable lurch forward. I was able to drive in 3rd gear to get home using sidestreets, however, i was turning 3500 rpm at 34mph. There had been no indication of any issues on the way over to my friend's house and the maintenance on this van has been pretty meticulous. The automatic transmission fluid level was check after i arrived home and the level indicates that it is full. *tt |
