All i have done is change the fluid with dextron 11. I put in 3 litres and only got about 2 out of it!
Now the light is on the dash and it seems to be stuck in 2nd, none of the modes work, E,S 1-2-3 etc. It will reverse but clunks when it engages.
Is it shot?
My girlfriend said last week the orange light was on on the dash, but turn it of then start the car again and it was fine
Help please!
thanks
auto box stuck in gear

It's in emergency get-you-home mode.
Did you change the filter as well?

i had a similar issue a while ago.
i was told the fluid was contaminated, and when i chaged it over it was fine no issues
check youve not put too much in or too little, its very sensitive
