2G automatic transmission help PLEASE

[Tsi90talon]

A friend of mine has a 2G turbo auto car that has some weird problems. The car was wrecked then the fixed it but to find out it wont go into 1st or reverse. It will move but it’s like it taking off in 2nd gear. The car has only 42,000 miles on its and its not giving us any cels. Any HELP would help. Thanks.

Check the tranny relay and fluid level.

There are a number of things that could be wrong. Since you aren't getting any CELs, it says one of two things. Either something is screwy between the TCU and the transmission (no communication - wiring/hardware problem) or it's a mechanical problem with the transmission. It's not clear how bad the accident was. If he was hit hard enough or in the right place with a certain amount of force, the transmission might be junk/need to be rebuilt.
