The Mitsubishi Lancer has an automatic transmission and I am unable to reverse with the vehicle. It can go forward in a very sluggish manner. The vehicle is losing power and has the following error codes:

27 - PRIM PRS.S.OP
57 - LINE PRS.LOW

I would be happy if anyone can tell me what those error codes means.

Many Thanks

These codes and you from what you have described it sounds like the transmission is low on fluid. Here is a guide that will show you how to check the fluid.
