It's a DIY job if you feel comfortable doing the repair.

It is possible that shift solenoid 2 is stuck open, and it might act like you are describing... I hope that car is cheap! -Charlie __________________ 2003 Impreza WRX Wagon 5spd - 2.2L stroker + other goodies 1989 Camry Alltrac LE 3S-GTE 5spd - SV25/ST205 hybrid 1990 Camry 3S-GTE 5spd - parted out / junked 1990 Camry DX 3S-FE 5spd - The original white90dx; gone but not forgotten
