Engine light came on car went In to limp mode then down shifted to second, replaced input and output speed sensors , engine light went off and drove fine for three days , then same issue started again , thought maybe sensors were faulty so replaced them again and changed transmission fluid and new trans filter ,engine light went off and drive fine for a few miles then same issue started again , pt will be fine at times for several miles then the park, reverse, neutral and drive lights in dash will start flashing , this is the heads up that it is going to go in limp mode then down shift into second , you can turn the car off at times wait a few minutes start the car and it will drive fine for awhile . I can also tell when I start the pt that it is going to shift fine for when I shift from park to drive it shifts smoothly, I know it is going to act up and be stuck in second when I start the pt and shift from park to drive for it shifts with a little jerk . I had the timing belt,tensioner kit , water pump and a value done in February , I spent all my savings having this repair work done . TIPM was replaced two years ago , at this point I can not take it to a repair shop due to it has drained my funds, need expert advice on this issue hoping it is something I can replace myself like I did the sensors . I do not think it is the transmission it's self for it shifts fine in all gears As i stated earlier before the P R N D lights start flashing goes into limp mode then stick in second . Thank You R.M.R.
