Shifting kills engine
When I put the car into reverse and then back to drive the engine shuts off. The shop is saying I need a new transmission and wants 5K. Can any of you guys help with why this is happening. It drives fine besides that.

Are there other symptoms such as rough idle, low idling? Might want to check hoses for cracks/splits, air leaks on intake, etc. There are many reason why this is happening. Even a dirty throttle body could cause this to happen.

There are no other symptoms I can tell for the reasoning. It drove fine, went into reverse fine but after backing up when I engage back to drive it just shuts off. Doesnt even shake or anything like that.
Yeah car was stopped before shifting. its weird it just shuts off. But it doesnt seem to happen when it goes from park to reversing to driving.
