Hello,
I just wanted to add a scenario that recently happened to me. MY wife told me that her car would not switch out of 3rd gear; so I researched the CL and started down the path mentioned above. I found out after gently warming my car and driving that the O/D light on the dash had burned out and her O/D was in fact activated.
Anyway, Glad I armed myself w/ the forum information and drove her car to understand exactly what was going on before pulling out the wrenches. (knock sensor replacement)

Good advice and I already did.
I never engage in a discussion with an idea to 'win' but with intention of finding 'why' and 'how' and constantly seeking solution to a problem and most of the time (at least for myself) I find that the solution is easy if I am open to alternatives.
