Bill, You mentioned that you checked the service manual and counted the blinks that the OD light gives. How is this done? And which service manual do you refer to to get the code? I'd like to see if I get a similar code. I just took in my car for a check engine light, but it was just 2 oxygen sensors gone bad. How's the shifting going for you so far? Chris

I am also experiencing a similar problem with getting out of first gear. I would be cruising at 5k RPMs in first gear at ~25 mph. My only difference is that when my car starts to warm up, the symptoms disappear and the car would shift out of first and into second normally. I just fixed a check engine light that gave a bad O2 sensor message. We'll see if replacing just the O2 sensor will keep that check engine light away. I was wondering if there is anyone else also having this transmission shifting problem, where it would go away once the engine is warmed up. My mechanic used his electronic diagnostic machine to get the code for my check engine light, and did not see any errors for the transmission.... Come to think of it, maybe it might see the error if the engine wasn't warmed up? Anyway, it would be nice if I could get this problem fixed.
