But when i stomp on the gas it rev's and hit rev limiter vooomvoomvooom pretty much going into 3rd gear the only way to get it back into gear is putting it into d2 or ss shift or come to a complete stop and gear ingages. I have replaced all Battery cables both neg and positive. chcked tranny fluid and all ground everything is good. So I went to the tranny shop where i got it done he said it was the tps sensor. he should me on the computer that we hooked up to the car that it doesnt read voltage alll the time. I dont buy it.

Are these any sign off a faulty tp sensor in your opinion or tranny????? It happens going over speed bumps (Only sometimes) AND THATS NOT STOMPING ON THE PEDAL!!!

do a search for voltage test + TPS on the internet
I dont have the spec but if they were able to show you on the scope
and you get it over bumps,,sounds reasonable

I would start with clean its power connections, does it look loose or crudded?

Anyone in the 209 with a reader?? harmz do you have one?
