Engine Mechanical problem
2001 Pontiac Sunbird 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

Car is dangerously reving close to red on highway as if tranmission is not in proper gear. When you let go of gas pedal goes down to under 1000. When stepping back on gas revs all the way just below red zone. As soon as you let go of the gas pedal drops to ~700 rpm. Is there a way to check trans. fluids? What could be the cause of this.

Isn't there a dipstick on an 01?
