My engine light went on and just shortly before that i was noticing a problem acheiving the normal shifting after reaching speeds 25 to 30 miles an hour,if i let off the excel.pedal and then try pushing down again it would finally shift into next gear and than it was smooth going into the higher gears, as soon as i had to slow down and or stop i was having the same problems every time im starting out excel again it wasnt going into 2nd or 3rd gear like it should,what can i do to solve this problem myself,
The solenoid is inside the transmission. On this kind of issue, I recommend changing the transmission fluid and maybe adding some conditioner to the fluid. If that doesn't work, a transmission specialist will have to open the transmission to repair.

Sounds like you might have serious internal transmission problems.
As soon as you can, get someone with a code reader to plug in the vehicle and find out what the code is for the Check Engine light to come on. Might give you a better picture of what`s going on.
It could also (cross your fingers) be something more usual like a clogged transmission filter (located inside the pan), or shift solenoid.
By the way, have you checked the level, look & smell of your transmission fluid?
Level should be checked with the vehicle running, after passing it in all gear ranges on the shifter, and putting it back in park (Check it on "cold" or "hot" level depending on if it`s been driving for a while or not).
As for look and smell, it should be reddish and not smell burnt. Hard to describe the smell of burnt transmission fluid, but normal fluid does not smell too strongly, kind of sweet. Burnt oil is usually black and has a strong odor. If the oil is burnt you have internal damage to the transmission.
One piece of advice I give you is get it fixed as soon as possible because if you don`t already have serious internal transmission problems, the longer you wait, the more chances you have of getting some, to the point of the vehicle just refusing to move. And believe me, speaking from experience, the transition point from the symptoms you describe to total refusal to move and the need for a tow/transmission rebuild is not that long usually.

This could be a dirty filter. i would start there and replace fluids with lucas tranny fluid. Does it change when the car warms up i wonder ?

What you need to check is the transmission release bearing because if there is a clearance on the release bearing you will encounter this problem and also check the transmission oil.

How many miles? Have you maintained, serviced trans in past or just waited for this day to wonder what happened?
