I’ve had my AT-200 for close to two years now and last night I decided to change my oil. Everything went smooth there (took me some time to find that damn oil filter) and I left it at that. This morning I started up my car to warm up and when I popped it into D, it wouldn’t move! I would hit the gas, and it would only inch forward. Wth? My revs shot up to 3k and it would only move inches. I popped it back into park and then drive again… same thing. Popped it into reverse then back into drive and bam! It began to move (still a bit slow). I went to work (34 miles away) and noticed that my shift shock had gone down (smoother shifts now…) and no other problems.

Should I be worried? I’m driving up to San Francisco from LA and I don’t want anything to happen when I’m out on the road. Help? Ideas? Thanks for any input.

just wondering if you took the wrong plug out...what color was the fluid....Red=auto tranny fluid. which means you added more oil into the engine. don't start in anymore until you drain the oil completely and add new stuff. if that's not.....i dunno then
