When the car is cold, it drives ok. As it warms up, the transmission (transaxle) starts to slip. Within 5 minutes, there is no reverse and barely any forward. Prior to this, there has been no indication of any pending problems. This started to happen the same day that a mechanic replaced all four tires.
