I think mine Transmission is going

Yesterday while coming home from brooklyn. I started the car a drove put it into drive everything seen fine until i got around the corner and started to speed up. The car wont rev over 2000 rpm. Its stays at 2 rpm until i hit second gear then its gradually raises from then... there is absolutely no low end power coming from the car. and when i put it in reverse its just revs like in Neutral and there was a load bang and it car jerked then it finally got into gear...

I'm taking it to service early tommorrow morning...
By the way its a (2k automagic)...

I'm on my 3rd tranny, I would not doubt it. You still have 6k left on your powertrain warranty so it should be covered.

Let us know the outcome.

yup definately tranmission man...i had the EXACT same problems as you.
no reverse and no tourque and no rpms!
i took it in and they had for about 5 days.
after the new trans...man it felt good...at least you still have your warranty left or esle that would be killer...by the way, i did everything you did to fix it up, oil change, and tran fluid change tune up but nothing helped...its gotta be the transmission...i feel your pain..
good luck
