ok im driving to school today doing around 40mph and then my car acted like it hit the governor. it wouldnt accelerat at all. and at a few points felt like it was about to die. so i took my foot off the gas and tried again. after 3 times it worked fine. well 4 hours later im leaving school and the exact same problem.

the only thing i did today was install my hid kit. and im having a problem with them as well. please read this link

4 cylinder. and yes when i hit the gas the car wont accerlat at all. but if i floor it it will then. the automotive teacher said it was tranny. that i was low on fluids so they filled it up. 2 days later its still doing it big time. its to the point where i might not drive it anymore bc i cant get up to speed sometimes or i cant go faster from a certain speed. so its dangerous to drive around bc im scared ill get rear ended

tranny prob.. pretty sure :coffee:

drain the fluid and see if u can find any metal pieces in it... running the tranny when it was low on fluids could have caused damages to it
