Hi peeps, desperately Need advice and help! I have an automatic 1994 2.4 and it has recently developed gearbox issues. First of all it went into safe mode and wouldn't move into any gears unless I did it manually with the 1 to 3 shift, so I replaced the autobox ECU and also the wiring that goes to the autobox. Was working well again for a short while, and now has developed another fault in which it sometimes skips 3rd gear, so goes from 2nd to 4th, which isn't an issue until you get to around 55mph, and then it wants to change up again as ECU detects there's another gear change needed resulting in it going into safe mode, which you have to reset by turning engine on and off, so basically doesn't go past 55mph now. When on the rare occasion it does select 3rd everything is ok, although it sounds like it's slipping when going into 3rd.
Heads baffled and no one I know wants to deal with. Does anyone know of anyone who can help or what the solution is? Would be extremely greatful of any help. Would change to a manual but my girlfriend can only drive automatics so that would be no good. I live in Scarborough. Any help would be much appreciated ?
Thanks
