check your connections at the rear of tranny, i am preetty sure its a speed sensor problem

oh another thing is if i turn the car of and let it sit a sec it will let me drive for a min then it will do it again it wont do it on a cold engine only a warm one after its been running for a while!

My speedo will also jump around when im idling! Oh lil buddy just reminded me the check engine light ahs come on a couple times then it jsut goes off! would the speed sensor make it go in and out of gears??? that jsut confuses me on how it does that! but i will go get a new speed sensor and see if that helps! im kinda hoping its the transmission going out so i can do a 5 speed conversion

did you check your tranny fluid it could be low enouph that its not getting enouph line pressure to ingage the clutches compleatly or all the time that could be causing the feeling of it being in nutral, its probably not the porblem. and if the fluid got low enouph to do what your discribing then the trannys probably toast any way. just a thaught that poped into my head

tranny is good just topped it off the other day and drained and refilled it on sunday! thanks for the idea but i thought it might be that as well adn i checked the fluid and it was jsut a lil low so i filled it and it still did it!

yotaboy79 · « **Reply #10 on:** Feb 25, 2005, 09:12:33 AM »

if the oil you draind from it was clean then i would guess its some sensor somewhere i dunno what else to say except good luck

check your line pressures at the t case and at the trans, check your DTC's and report them back to me and I will try to come up with something

scheid6996 · « **Reply #12 on:** Feb 25, 2005, 05:16:32 PM »

flopp it, put in a 5 speed

mudaddict · « **Reply #13 on:** Feb 25, 2005, 08:51:07 PM »

k ill pull it in and check it!

mudaddict · « **Reply #14 on:** Feb 25, 2005, 10:11:38 PM »

ok so im jsut about to check the line pressure but what are dtc's?? that part confused me! well i talked to my parents today they didnt seem to happy about the whole thing! they DID NOT like the idea of a conversion because to much modifications and money would be involved!

so i will jsut ahve to wait until the car is mine then its all good!

my speedo did the same thing on cold mornings until it simply broke the needle off. But this was while in motion in a manual, the cable was at fault but i wish i could help witht he auto problem.

DTC-defined Diagnostic Trouble Codes, These are the codes that you retrieve with the scantool. Toyota can retrieve them for you or if they have Autozone stores where you live they will do it for free. Just remember the are in the business of selling parts and just because it may have a speed sensor code it doesn't necessarily mean that the speed sensor is bad. All that I need are the code numbers (example - P0335). I do not need the definition of the code.
