Got a automatic talon and car drives fine when cold, only when its in hot operating temp it really acts up. it starts to downshift hard and when you put it in neutral or park the rpm go up and stays above 1500. it really sucks cause this is my daily and this really makes it hard to drive when your in traffic slowing down and you car is downshifting super hard. also sometimes my wide band stays between 12.0 and 10.0 and then my car dies and i cant start it up for awhile. i think maybe my fpr might be going bad and it just shooting to much gas. anybody have these problems before. thanks
