What is it

If I don't let my car warm up, it shuts off. I drive a '97 3.0 auto. Also, today it strongly hesitated to shift into 1st and did it again shifting into 2nd. What the hell's going on!?

well depends....if its a cold drive..then it will take longer to shift..cuz its still warming up...but if it was warmed up and it shifts like that then ur tranny is going to die soon.


as for the shut off due to cold start..i have no idea. im not a car expert. haha

no no no, my tranny will not die, i REFUSE to accept that, it's so new it's still under warranty! I understand that's a good thing, but it's still a pain in the ass
