Had grinding noise with trans, thought clutch was bad had it replaced, was told it was not the clutch but trans needed replacing, purchased manual trans from junkyard with 19,000 miles installed drove to new orleans and back to Va. With no problems, go to DC and car wont shift into reverse, 1st or 5th gear, fluid levels good, whats the problem

I would check the Shift sensors on top of your transmission usually under your air filter box.

2005 gls 1.6 auto. When at operating temperature, vehicle slips going into overdrive and gets stuck in 4th gear. Have replaced all recommended sensors input/output transmission speed, vehicle speed, tranny fluid is full and not too bad, thinking of draining and switching out fluid since not knowing what the previous owners used for transmission fluid and read a lot about non- hyundai fluid causing the same issue. At a loss honestly, check engine light will stay off after battery disconnect UNTIL it does its lurch when downshifting from OD to 4th to accelerate. When it shifts rough, it won't go back into OD until you stop, turn off the car, take the key out of the ignition and restart. Again, if at operating temperature it'll do it again the minute it has the chance. HOWEVER... This has the push button OD button on the gear shift and I can drive it, using only the OD when on the highway going 70mph. If I need to pass someone or accel up a hill, I take it out of OD (3000-4500rmp) and once ready to just cruise, I push the button and it goes into OD.
Recently, when stopping to restart and get it out of "limp mode", it won't immediately restart. It'll act as if the starter is having issues... let it sit 3-5 minutes and it will crank over just fine. Really need this commuter car running but it's nickel and diming this single mom of an special needs kiddo! Any help????
