When I accelerate the car jerks and it won't go passed 30 mph. It make a sound like I have the vehicle in neutral while trying to gas it. I know it has to be the transmission, but what specifically? What's more important, how much does this sort of problem cost to repair (an idea)?

Hi there,

I would start and see if there are any transmission fault codes set, As for a costing, this is near impossible to judge as the transmission will have to be inspected first as component requirements are unknown.
