    Default Transmission I think

    I was on my way home from Wyoming and was driving on the interstate and I also had the power button on and my jeep was shifting really funny and at one point even kicked its self into nuteral but went back in to gear after I let off the gas

    He checked the oil about 2 hrs in on a 4 hr trip back to salt lake and it was full. The weather was cold yesterday when he headed back. It just started doing it. Thanks for any ideas sucks having the kids jeep 4hrs away and trying to fix it over the phone.

    It shifts really rapid and sometimes down shifts from 2000 rpms when I give it some gas and falls to about 1500 it also died at a stoplight and nothing would even try to kick on not even the radio about 1 min after it started but was flooded or somthing cause it took a lot of encouragement to start it

    mmmm..not good..can ya see the leak, the trans is a strong bit of gear in the xj..the two ive killed was water and heat..heat was because there was a slight leak in trans line ..it killed the torque converter...did you check trans oil while in neutral and warm while on flat ground ...have you overfilled it..just as bad as not enough......did you notice any puffs of white smoke while driving it..tis the color trans oil makes when it hits the muffler.
