I replaced my vss and it fixed my speedometer trouble, but then I bottomed out and now my speedometer is messing up again and when it dose my car wants to spudder, almost like it is in neutral and then the car will jerk and then I can start speeding up. Please help me.

Have you checked the VSS and wiring to it again? If it isn't working, the trans will act up.

If the transmission fluid is low would it cause the speedometer to act up?

No, the speedo works off what is called a hall effect. Low fluid wouldn't cause it.
