Sounds like you've lost your 2nd and 4th gear. Better to replace them before they blow up and you need a whole new transmission.

Is Toyota taking responsibility for the transmission failures on the 2003 Manual transmission Corolla? Has anyone received compensation from them after they had a transmission fail?
