Transmission problem
2002 Chrysler Town and Country 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

Start car and put into drive with foot on the brake. Speedometer spikes and car bucks, even worse with air cond on. Ok while car is driving. Only when stopped and in gear.

The only other thing I can tell you to check is the cluster itself.

Let me know what you find. I suggested that because you have replaced the other items and it didn't change things.
