hi all im new and im guessing my transmission is out!!. but i thought i would run it by you pros, cause there is a little bit of a strange twist.
i have a 97 grand prix gtp 2 door coupe, it had ran a service engine light about a couple weeks back and it was a code for a faulty solonoid in the tranny( dont remeber exactly what the code was off hand im at work) and ways basically somtimes it woul just shift kinda snappy/agressive and somtimes it would be super smooth. ive read many has had this issue and they have driven on it for some time so i figured when i get more money ill fix it.
last night i was coming home from fams house and in lower rpms crusin on the highway it started to kinda putter like a car that is misfiring would, and the RPM gauge would kinda be hoping back and fourth quickly from 1.5- 2k untill you give it a little gas and it would smooth out.
the other night i got in it heading home from the gym, and as i left the parking lot i noticed all the sudden the car was just reving as i drove and that the power to the wheels is gone. i turned the car off checked around and got back in started it up and put it in reverse to pull out of the parking spot i coasted into and it engauged i backed out put it in drive and started going, about 5-10 seconds it gives out again leaving me just reving the engine with no power to the wheels. i also when i turn the car back on hear somthing making a noise like somthing is engaging? and then itll drive for a few after started and then will stop again.
im going to go have it looked at cause i love my gp but was hoping anyone might have a hunch or know somthing?
thanks again sry for my spelling
