should be under warrante

Your clutch has a concentric bearing situated inside the gearbox, oil all over means that the seal broke and when you pressed the clutch the liquid went into the gearbox, onto the disc and than out through small gaps that are always there in the gearbox. Solution is simple but time taking, you need to remove the gearbox, take out the cylinder, examine the seal, replace it, bleed it ( not like normal clutch only by releasing air via nipple), examine for any leaks and than put everything back in with a new clutch.

If that actually repaired the fault the code should reset after several starts however, there are 2 other ways. 1, Go to Auto Zone or Advance Auto and ask them to read the stored codes, if those codes are the same show them the receipts for the parts you purchased and sometimes they will reset the code for you. 2, Remove the negative battery terminal from the battery for 1 min then reconnect it. This will rest the computer in the vehicle.

In this car the power is transmitted to the rear wheels by a viscous coupler - something similar to the coupler in a automatic transmission. It it doesn't sends the power immediately then it's worn out: the oil inside it as the clutch plates are worn out and will have to be replaced. The coupler must be removed from the car, dismantled and refurbished. It will cost you around $250 for parts plus the 4 hour labor by the shop.

You may have a problem with your AC compressor if the bearings are bad they can rob a lot of power from your engine.

Check the rad if its clogged

OK, the first step you have already done, checked the fluid level, and flushed and filled the auto transmission fluid, I gather.

The second thing I would try to have done is to have the transmission rebuilt, if the first solution doesn't work.

I know this costs a lot, but if you plan on keeping the car this is the only solution.

The linkage may be worn out or more likely, the solenoid inside the transmission is acting up.

Or, the clutch is worn out for reverse.

It's most likely a solenoid, but the transmission must be torn down and rebuilt to rectify the situation.

Try a local automatic transmission repair shop.

Good luck on this repair.

There is a switch on top of the steering column that turns the park lights on and off too.

The first thing i would look at would be the fuel pump, i would check to see if the engine is getting fuel. anther problem that would not be related to your loosing power is the timing belt may have let go this is very common for this type of car that dies while driving, start with these checks first. hope this helps.

Definitely at least try a thermostat.Seeing how you did the pump already,if it still happens after a thermostat,this is going to be an issue.Good luck! Greg How quick does it overheat?If it's pretty quick thermostat.If it's gradual and you can go like 40 miles before it overheats it could be a loose belt.

Your ignition switch is faulty and needs replacement this is why the power stays on to power up the lights!

Have you had any problems with any leaks? It sounds to me like the seal on the windshield is bad. Just the right size hole in the seal will cause that whistling noise.It actually happened to my car.They can test it with a smoke test around the seals.Since your vehicle is still new it will be under warranty. They have to fix it or you can have a shop fix it with a reimbursement from the dealership. If you continue to have problems that are not able to be fixed,you got a lemon. Demand a fix or a new car.

Its either your thermostat (real cheap fix), radiator, or water pump but thats doubtful. Check your thermostat first, then your radiator. Good Luck!
