Transmission problem
1998 Hyundai Accent Two Wheel Drive Automatic 89000 miles

when I am driving my car it will shift normally through all 4 gears but suddenly when I come to a stop or slow down and start driving, it will only shift in second and third gear, but if I stop and turn off the engine and restart it, it will shift normally through all 4 gears again. This erratic shifting happens often please help

When was the last transmission service-fluid/filter?

Get the throttle position and vehicle speed sensor checked-these components input signals to the computer indicating the throttle and governor pressure to provide proper shifting-up/down shift.
