My problem is that occurs when I ride above 65 mph for 5-10 minutes an light comes on and I have to stop and wait until the transaxle fluid cools down. What is the real problem and what are my resolutions for this problem?

scan for codes first to see if there are any. this has a cvt transmission in it which is relatively new for us guys and trans guys so don't be surprised if it's hard to find a repair shop that will look at it and diagnose it correctly.

I just checked and got a catalytic converter code. I was told by that I may need new oxygen sensors. How do I know what's what? By the way I just replaced my passenger side control arm.

if you got the cat code then have a pro diagnose it as he can see if O2 sensors are reading right. if you have an air leak PRIOR to converter that will cause it. Keep away from auto parts people diagnosing your car.
