Start it up and it pulls. Drive it a few miles and make a dead stop and it won't pull like reverse or nothing it won't pull at all. Put it in park shut it off and wait a few minutes and start it back and it will pull again.

I changed the fuel filter, and the fluid. What could be the problem?

Hi,

When you say fluid, are you referring to the transmission fluid? If so, how dirty was the fluid that was removed? Did changing the fluid make any difference?

Next, what I would recommend doing is to scan the can-bus to see if there are codes stored in any of the different modules that may point us in the right direction. Here is a link showing how it's done:

Let me know.
