Car feels different after transmission repairs

Post by reigox »

My transmission broke a few months ago and i got my car back like 2 weeks ago. Now it feels like that it isn't pulling the same as before. The shifts are weird too, very jumpy/jerky shifts. I know that it could be because of the transmission valve body, but maybe there are other causes?

maybe, but could driving like this hurt the transmission?

Update: there was a ''Intake Air Temperature Sensor'' code, deleted it for now and the car seems fine, the original power of the car is back.

Ask the shop for the brand of transmission fluid used and check specs.
