Hi there. It sounds like you have several concerns with the vehicle; we’ll stick to the first one that was mentioned. It sounds like there could be an internal fault in the transmission; whether this is a mechanical or electrical, we won’t know until a proper diagnosis is performed. Any codes that may be stored in the engine or transmission computers will help lead a qualified technician to the area that requires inspection. As a rule of thumb, never replace a part without fully determining that the part has failed and why it failed. Those that offer assistance in the form of " I think......" or " I’ve seen this go bad....." have not provided a diagnosis; this is simply an educated guess and could prove expensive. I suggest having a qualified technician perform an inspection to avoid replacing unnecessary parts and possibly providing you with a technician that you are comfortable with and trust. Your Mechanic has several technicians available that can assist you with a car will not go into gear inspection.
