[QUOTE="Lou M, post: 983748, member: 60944"] Hello all, Been a bit busy. But I have been reading this post. The Trac has 70k miles on it. I purchased it at 48K. The dealer (J**p Chr****r) indicated that all fluids were changed prior to the purchase. I haven't found any paperwork. So I think I will have that done immediately. After reading some responses, my immediate thought is that there could possibly be something sticking (soleniod) in the transmission. I now recall that the Trac doesn't do this upon start up. Only after it is warm and has been at freeway speeds for about 20 minutes or more. True, no dip stick. Another question that I have is will the computer store codes about transmission or engine problems without displaying a "check engine" light? Thanks for all of your input and the discussion. Very informative. Automatic transmissions always confound me. My other car is a 6 speed manual. Clutch in. Shift. Clutch out. Zoom. In the event that I do find out what the problem is and have it repaired. I will close this thread with the solution. Lou... [/QUOTE]
