Transmission Problem
Has anyone experienced this...I was starting from a dead stop and the car seemed to start like it was in 3rd gear and wouldn't come out of it. It had no passing gear. I'm sure it was in normal drive (comfort). When I tried to shift manually nothing happened. When I got back home I shut it off and restarted it...Everything was back to normal.
Thanks....

I had a similar problem when I got my car back from the SBC upgrade last month. It cleared up after two days. Car seemed to stall when I accelerated from a dead stop.
