Car feels like it has a plugged cat.convertor and has no power. It really just chugs along with no pickup. I am not sure if it is an easy repair or one for a transmission shop? Car has a rebuilt trans. and has been fine, shut off in the a.m and acted up on my ride home from work. Any suggestions?

Hi there,

This code comes up as a stuck shift solinoid in the transmission, get a trans shop to inspect this first.
