A couple weeks ago my girlfriend reversed my wagon and slammed it into drive and it whent right to a nuetral stage i then put in park and started to give it gas and it made a loud noise and all my gears worked...about two weeks later it klunks again this time it has ..Park,Reverse,nuetral and when i put it into drive it acks like it wants to go a little bit and also in 2nd i can only take off in 1st gear and when i hit about 25 or 30 i can manualy shift into 2nd and on but if i slow down to much it will go right back to nuetral...im pretty sure i need a new or rebuilt trans but if anyone know more than me PLEASE LET ME KNOW. thank jason

Yes, you need a new tranny. It sounds like the forward sprag clutch inside of the tranny was broken or shattered. You also should install a new torque converter.
