The RPMs started to rise snd then BAM it kicked into gear and trans failsafe popped up. The X drives fine in reverse but is shaky in D and wont really move. I limped it into the garage as I consider my options. Any ideas? Can it be the torque converter or something internal to the trans has let go? Only error in the EGS is stall speed which points to some sort of mechsnical failure. When it rains it pours!  |
likely your clutch a-drum seal is failed, this is a common problem, running it more will break down a bearing and start to destroy the rest of the transmission.
you may need a full internal rebuild.
there's less a chance it could be an electrical issue, after you have done some common sense troubleshooting or not.
look at your fault codes from transmission.
