Hard to understand your English, but sounds like you have a 'speed sensor' issue. They are used by the transmission and speedometer to determine when to shift and display the speed.

A dealer/mechanic can diagnose what sensor needs replaced.

I have a 2000 golf 2.0 (automatic) it is not shifting properly. check engine light is on. when i drive @ 30-40mph it revs between 3-4rpm when usual it would be @ 2. what could this be?

the first thing i would do would be to check the trany fluid level,make sure engine is warm and then check, some of these vws dont have dip sticks to check the trany oil level,theres a procedure to check,so if yours doesnt have a dip stick you should take it somewhere and have the level checked and also check for leaks,if the trany oil is full then i would have the trany checked, also that check engine light may have something to do with the shifting problem,have the computer scanned, the codes will help you diagnose the problem,auto zone will scan it for free, there are other parts places that will also scan and give you a read out of the codes stored in the computer, hope this helps.

Tow haul flashing,shifts like the tow haul buttons been pushed,but shift hard

If that light is flashing that means there is a problem with the trany. If you continue to drive it, it will damage the trany. I suggest you get it into a trany shop as soon as possible. I guess, I would take it to a private shop, that specializes in automatic transmissions, instead of taking it to a dealer.

Hi. Thanks for looking at this for me. I have a 2004 Yukon and the transition from first to second gear has been slipping - engine revs and it takes a second for the shift to occur. My local transmission...

no belts in transmission 2-4 band slipping if its a 4l60e will need overhaul you just dont replace band you have to check out why it failed what about the drum the band wraps around should be check for wear the worn lining from band went some wear did he open filter when pan was down is that $1200 a guantee price whats the warranty is it a year or 12000 miles I'd get another opinion

Transmission not shifting

trans shifts by throttle pressure the linkage at the throttle body has to be working correctly and installed properly and adjusted properly good luck
