ok i have started over 2 threads both here and on 2gnt and nothing got solved. basically what i am running into is after driving my 95 rs eclipse w/108k for like 45 mins when coming to a stop the car jerks out of gear and goes into what i call limp mode (won't shift out of second gear). i have had a guy put on computer and he said a speed sensor showing bad. got that fixed and it still does it. i am having the guy put back on computer to see if there are any more codes but it is starting to look grim. if anyone out there has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated. and no i am not able to do a swap to 5 speed at this time (although it would be nice)
 
can anyone give me a clue of what to do here. seriously it has been going on for like 6 months now and i really need help. other sites haven't helped out none and figured i would try here.
 
ok just to update anyone that is just reading and might have a clue (by the number of views and responses doesn't look good) guy hooked back up on computer today and the car didn't throw any codes. he said that a heat sensor was bad and was replacing it but i am still completely baffled on this. if anyone has a remote idea of what to do or where to look to get it fixed please give me something. i am desperate and am begging for help on this.
 
The idea would be for you to get it diagnosed locally by an expert.

On the web no one can check sensors, drive it, scan it, etc. It would only be guess work.

There are literally hundreds of things that can cause your problem.

The possibility exists that the TCU is bad, but it is an expensive call to make without real diagnosis.

Im having kind of the same prob I think, my speed sensors were sendin a code but now I fixed those and 3rd and 4th ratios are said to be incorrect, check to see if your connections on the battery and comp are good. Im thinkin that might be my prob.
