I get a transmission fault on whenever it is slippery. rpm's go high and when I turn it off and start again it is fine again. I had transmission service done about eight weeks ago.

Hello,

If when you had the service done if they used the wrong fluid it can cause this problem. Second is I would read the codes the car has to see what kind of failure the car is recording.

Here is a guide to show you how to get the codes.
