newer mopar 2004 neon transmission problem,, maybe?????

2004 neon with 89,000 miles, when i put it in drive it waits like 2to 3 seconds and then it moves, and sometimes it waites 2to3 seconds and it moves a little and then a second later it moves little faster, like it shifts 2xs,going not even 1mph, and sometimes it workes normal no waiting @ all,its really weird any info would be appreciated,, thanks paul

2 things you need to do, Both require a scanner

ck the range sensor selector to make sure it's actually making the transittion from park to rev/drive electrically.

2nd would be ck and make sure you don't have a loss of prime fault, meaning either extremely low on fluid or front pump issue.

All A604 based transmissions automatically apply the low/rev clutch as soon as it's started. That way all it has to do is apply either the underdrive clutch or rev clutch. but by description it sounds like a ft pump issue

ok thanks
