May be the TCC solenoid causing this, but usually symptoms are a little different. Usually the car goes OK until it gets hot, then shakes and stalls when you try to slow down or stop. Won't go in drive or reverse until it cools down again. These go bad fairly often, and in fact mine bit the dust a while back. Can get it fixed at most shops for 150-250 dollars. See what other advice you get, but if the torque coverter acts up you will hear some racket for sure. You can try a quick fix by unhooking the 4 pin plug to the transmission and see what happens... If yours is a 6 cylinder it should be under the air filter holder. Should be similar for 4 cyl. I think. Perhaps someone else has a better suggestion??? (If this stops your trouble don't let it go forever, you can drive for a while like this but won't have overdrive gear which will use more gas and put a little more strain on system)
