Customer: stuck in drive. Tranny works smooth after you rev it up enough to BANG in gear. Than it slips til you get up to 5th gear speed. Tried used ECU. Same issue. Tranny was rebuilt 30,000 miles ago. Hate to junk car when I have convinced myself it’s electronic. Drove home 500 mi. With issue. Ran fine. Dropped tranny pan to get to sensor. Fluid clean with no debris on magnets or pan. I believe it was filled with incorrect fluid “ red “ shouldn’t it be green?
