Transmission was slipping in first and second gear. So I went to the dealer and they told me I needed a trans. Ok, I bought a used trans because they said I could"nt get a new one. Well as soon as I pulled out on to the road after they installed the trans it started to do the same thing it was doing when I took it in the first time. Well, they told me they had to put it on the computer to reset it. Well that worked. My problem is that I asked them if they could reset it when I first took it to them and they said no. Well why did they reset it the second time and not the first time? I think I bought a trans that I did"nt need in the first place. Now I have 174,441miles on my car. At the time I got the trans I had 146,740. Now at 27701 miles later it starting to do the same thing it was doing the very first time. I think I got taken.
