The automatic trans in my wife's 99 Sebring started acting up today. The car has about 110k on it and I'm sure before we were married it was neglected. I doubt it's the original trans fluid but I'm sure it's been 30-50k since last change.
Anyway the car will not shift past first gear right now and the speedo isn't working. It'll go from Park to Reverse to Neutral to Drive and function properly, just won't shift past first gear. Anyone have any ideas?
I could try changing out the fluid or adding some type of trans medic snake oil but since reverse and first are ok I'm not sure this would help....possibly hinder. If I could get it working again without any major mechanical work it'd be great as we're planning on getting rid of the car soon anyway.
