Short discription of how and why I am asking for help. 2003 Outback 2.5 with auto tranny. Busted timing belt lead to 14 of 16 bent valves. Engine removed. Heads removed and reworked with all new valves. New tinimng belt, water pump, rollers and tensioner. New timimg belt covers. Valves adjusted. Reintalled engine and it fires 1st time and runs better than it ever has. Now AT Oil Temp blinking fast and steady. Drives and shifts great in drive but only going straight. When turning is like driving a large 4 wheel drive truck that is in low range and in 4 wheel drive. It skips when turning. In reverse it is fine backing up straight when turning it skips and almost like it is winding up tighter the further back you go. It is like the clutches in the differential are not engaging for the tires to turn freely as needed. When shifted into Park it like the tranny is still in gear as when you turn off the engine it releases the tension. Have undone all electrical connections and plugged back in. No help.I am sure it probably is a sensor that got missed or went bad or is shorted out but not sure where to look. Frustrated to the point of pulling engine out and starting over but really don't want to. Please help.
