Let's preface. Car is going to the dealer Monday. I'm not asking for help diagnosing. But if you guys wanna guess, I'll PayPal the winner money for a 6 pack. I'll provide the dealer service order when done as proof
2018 GT pp1. All stock. 26,000 miles.
Symptoms. Car has always lagged into drive and reverse.
Lately car has acted as if in neutral when in first gear and cold. But it's hard to replicate. Basically if you started rolling forward and lifted off the throttle and then pushed the throttle again it'd rev up and then jump.
Wednesday driving home from lunch I crossed a set of railroad tracks and slowed way down. Once jumpedacross I on the car pretty hard and when I did it downshifted and felt as if the car had been rear ended.
This was a block from home so I just dropped it off and ignored it. I hopped in my beater and went to work.
Today I decided to drive it to work.
Started it up and when I put it in gear it would rev up and barely move. Much like a slipping clutch. It then lurched and acted normal. I got on the road and it harshly shifted into second. Once in second it wouldn't shift until 6500 and when it did it felt like the car was rear ended. Once into third it wouldn't move and the wrench lit up.
I turned it around and limped it home. Once in reverse it'll move but when you let off the gas it feels like you've hit the brakes.
I didn't pull codes, but can. I have forscan.
Ideas? Guesses?
