I hit a raccoon last week. Think impact was more on passenger side of undercarriage. Approximately 1-2 miles after hitting raccoon, I noticed I was giving gas but wasn\u2019t speeding up so,I let off gas and everything seemed to be okay intel I would give gas to speed up. I could hear engine accelerate but transmission didn\u2019t seem to be engaging, so I I let off gas drove about half mile pulled over to check, put in reverse u could hear engine accelerate but no movement, so put back in park shut off to wait for hubby. After about 5 min decided to turn back on put it in gear functioned normally for short distance but then same issue again, engine accelerate but no\u2019s shift, (a mile at most )shut off again waited approximately 5 minutes turned on fine then same issue., so pulled over waited for hubby to come get.<\/p>\n<p>No dash lights ever came on, no burning smell from engine or transmission to indicate getting hot during all this.<\/p>\n<h4>No previous warning signs<\/h4>\n<p>No previous warning signs to indicate transmission problems ever before this incident, hubby added transmission fluid assuming cause was low fluid ended up not being low so we had to drain back out. Fuses seem to be good. Took pan off didn\u2019t see any shavings or anything. Don\u2019t think burnt out trans because like I said never got hot or anything before or after this incident. I feel has to be related to raccoon accident because I know I didn\u2019t drive more than 2 miles when it started having problems and never had any issues before.<\/p>\n<p>Is there something underneath, plug sensor, etc that could have gotten broken knocked loose from Impact of raccoon.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><!-- In-Article --><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block; text-align: center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-5950293074584657\" data-ad-slot=\"3814845838\"><\/ins> <script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freeautomechanic.com\/transmission.html\">Transmission Troubleshooting<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The transmission cooling lines\/hoses are on the passenger side.
