Hi gang,
Any advice on this one? My "cheap" project car seems to have all of a sudden become a bit more expensive. I replaced the throttle body. The good news is that my idle seems to have settled. The bad news is that in driving around the block I realized that the car won't shift gears unless I put the darned thing in manual mode!!! Arrrrghhhh.

Has anyone else come across this issue? I have yet checked colour of trans fluid and that will be my next move but beyond that, any ideas, suggestions, troubleshooting tips?

No CEL codes have crept up yet.

The vehicle is a 2004 2.5T (petrol)
