number four i think...

so i start my car today and my check engine light and vsa light come on. so i look at it like damn whats wrong and start to drive. my ca never leaves first gear.
so when it idles it also sounds like its about to stall out and then revs back up to about 1k

anyone know if thats the tranny dead or is this a multilayer cake of problems??

sounds like tranny. try to get the code read and see what it is. and if its the tranny, see if the dealer will give you a new one. are you under 109k?

Sounds like the tranny again... When the dash lights up like a Xmas tree, that's usually a sign...
