Description of the problem | I was driving on the freeway and attempted to accelerate. The transmission hunted for a gear but seemed to get stuck between gears and acted as if it was in neutral. The engine rpms stayed up since i had my foot on the gas. I let off the accelerator and the engine rpms didn't drop, but kind of jumped around. I tried applying the accelerator but it just revved and didn't accelerate. I then stopped applying the accelerator, shifted to neutral, then shifted back to drive and the transmission found a gear and i was able to drive normally. |
