my 1997 buick lesabre custom won't to into gear. The transmission wasnt showing any signs of slippage. I was driving on the highway and heard two loud thumping noises and the car just died. White smoke is coming from below the engine around the oil stick. I checked the oil it was fine and so is the transmission fluid. Both fluid levels are normal. I went to autozone and used their diagnostic and it said transmission control solenoid and it also needed a map sensor. I wondering if its the cv axle because when I shift gears and put it back into park I hear a grinding noise. Any ideas im dumbfounded and not a mechanic?
