Fairtax4me Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Sounds like limp mode. Try to find a way to pull trans DTCs? Any CEL codes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 In my experience - that's new (used) transmission time. The EJ 5 speed's aren't all that reliable given a mild amount of abuse - if it's been abused to the point that it's stuck in a gear - it's very likely toast inside. Drain the gear oil and see what you get. It will probably be full of metal chunks and filings. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
