Just bought an 03 G.. been driving great. Today.. Got on it ( Bedding brakes ) and now I only have 1st gear. No other gears it seems.. AT doesnt work only 1st and the TT shifting is out too. Please help. I found one other thread about this but all was no help. Need some answers.

 

I don't know if this will work try resetting the ECU. Disconnect the battery for a few hrs then try for some reason your car is in fail safe mode.

 

safe mode is 3rd gear only... not 1st

 

^true I forgot it was 3rd gear.

 

So About an hour ago everything went down.. Then I get in.. Perfect.. Shifts seem a bit out of ordinary. But everything seems fine.. Then .. Stop at the butchers.. Come out.. Car stuck in 3rd.. Then.. I limp it home.. Shut it off.. AT CHECK light is on.. Then shut it off again.. Start it right back up.. AT Check is off and car is fine.. So confused I could drive the thing through a F'n wall... WHY SAFEMODE? I checked tranny fluid... Full and Red. All good... ??? SO CONFUSED! Any input from anyone? Thanks for the replys already guys..

 

So I just read another site of someone that had a similar problem, but had a manual.. could still change.. but car went into limp.. NOW.. the reason.. Break sensor sensed brakes applied and throttle..

I just replaced litereally today.. the brakes on my g.. is there something I didnt do.. I did notice the brake resivour is overfilled right now for some reason.. Never done brakes but didnt seem hard.. Let me know.. Thanks guys..

 

no codes? I have a check engine light... I dont have a way to check codes til i get it to a dealer tomorrow.. Check engine is surely just the car saying something isnt right.. But the intermittent AT light flashes after the car has gone into limp and i have turned the ignition off.. next time on the at flashes.. after on and off a couple of times.. the AT turns off and Check eng stays on..

 

when i first got my g my tranny light came on just going down interstate with cruise set bout 80mph, bout 10sec later my car just shut off, while still rolling and figuring out what the hell.... i put it in N(got a 5AT), turn the key and it started like nothing happened... took to dealership they couldnt figure it out... bot 3 weeks later it did it again when i was coming to a stop sign... car shut off and a rolled throguh jumped a ditch and messed up alot of ****... dealership then fixed my tranny for me along with everything else i broke

 

thanks for replies all.. I disconnected the battery for a couple hours. Caught up on some of The Shield Eps and then went to it. First off I siphoned some of the brake fluid out (thought maybe that was causing the ECU to give me the faults) then took it for a ride. I come back here to tell you.. All is good for now. Took it through some different tests and everything is as it should be (with the exception of a hard shift from 2-3rd..??) I did some stop and go..
Some 0-110. All seems to be working properly.

Let me know if anyone else has had any probs like this, in case I should be more worried.

Thank you all for your quick replies.. Great community here. Will update soon on the, hopefully not, ongoing G35 limp .

 

Well.. It happened again. everything has been great.. no problems.. for one day. now while driving in 3rd TT(manauto). Acted funny for a second. then.. Service engine soon light on .. Turn car off.. AT CHECK light on.. Turn off.. turn back on .. Just SES light. And driving funky.. But normal.. Weird shifts at lower than usual RPM. WTF is the problem with my G. Damn.. May need to sell it soon. Any thoughts all??

 

Your answer should be in the code that is behind the SES light. Tell us what the code is and we'll try to tell you how to fix it. The next time you get the code cleared, get them to tell you what it was.

 

Codes are the 1730 for solenoid.. the other is 1774 i beleive. Its the low coast solenoid. I need to know how hard or easy they are to fix. $$?? Let me know. Thanks guys.
