My tranny operates normally when the car is first driven for 20 mins to an hour. Normally it will then be parked for 3-4 hours. When I start driving then, the check engine light will come on soon after starting to move and only 2nd and 3rd gears are available.
Dealer mechanic says it needs an "output sensor" to make it shift correctly.
This happened breifly @ 6 months ago and the "input sensor" was installed to fix it and it ran fine for 3-4 months.
Does this sound correct?
I am hoping to have the part installed also so the cruise control will work again (the part is in but it has taken @ 9 months to get it - I was told national back order ).
