Hello. My son just brought his 2000 Corolla w/ 98000 miles and auto transmission home from school. In Reverse, a very slow acceleration will move the car in reverse slowly but fast Reverse acceleration just revs the engine, no movement. Forward gears seem ok. Fluid level seems ok.
Check engine is on but that might be coincidence because he doesn't know how long it has been on(!).
Is this more likely a repair or replace? I have a trusted garage who only does replacements but if I can save several hundred $$ I will try for repair. Also, are Reverse and Forward independent so that Forward gears(s) are not necessarily destined to go as well? Thanks!
