This vehicle when you start it and engage gear whether Drive or Reverse, it will load and if it drive small it will stop and cannot drive again whether forward or Reverse until you turn off the engine and wait like 2mins before starting it again. It will still drive and stopped. Is it the transmission filter or fluid pump or shift solenoid A causing this problem?

P0730 code there's an incorrect gear ratio which means the input shaft sensor probably has gone out which is common. Here is the location so you can check the electric connector and if it's okay change out the sensor. They call it a countershaft speed sensor. Check out the images (below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
