It is a 5 speed standard 2.0 hatchback. I am trying to sell it and was cleaning it up today under the hood. I removed my battery connections to clean the terminals. When I re-connected and went for a drive shortly after the car was slipping from gear back to Neutral every 2 seconds or so. It also didn't sound too confident sitting parked in neutral. Like it might stall. My radio is in safe mode and my check engine light came on. Any thoughts on why this may have happened? Thank you so much for any help.

The radio is supposed to lock when you disconnect the battery. You will have a code number to unlock that. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

I was just wondering if anything battery related could make the standard transmission do that.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
