Okay, I just got my car 4 days ago and I was leaving a restaurant. Before leaving you have to get on the highway (my car was in "D" btw). Anyway, I needed to get up to speed fast so I kinda step on it and next thing I know I hear a loud pop and the transmission went into "3" (fail safe mode). I rolled to the u-turn part of the highway, then my car kinda just sat there... Every time I rev the car it would change gears but it was like the car was in "N" and I got my mom and bf to get me a push to the other side. Thankfully a Mazda dealership was right across from the place we were eating at.
But what im trying to ask is what happened to the car? There wasnt any leaks and I tried putting it in park and I heard a grinding noise like when you try to put a car in park and its still moving. So the tranny was still spinning and I lose my parking gear. Do any of you guys know what happened? I don't have a tranny cooler. I've only had the car for 4 days, it had 95,000 and it's an 04 hb v6. I didn't have any engine check lights or A/T light or tcs light come on either. I searched the forum all night and still didnt see an answer
