If you are accelerating in second gear and it seams as though the power is not getting to the ground, you may need a new clutch, check with your mechanic. This will only get worse and you will notice it in other gears as well. Check with a Saab club to find a good mechanic in your area if you don't already have one. Saabs aren't typical cars and a good mechanic is important. if the gear selector slips out, it's probably the gear frame where your gear selector is. if you have an automatic tranmission or you mean like "slipping in the snow", i don't know. sorry...
You probably have a slipping clutch band in your transmission. Take it to a transmission shop.
Depends on the type of transmission you have. If it's an automatic, check the transmission fluid with the vehicle running to make sure it isn't low. If it's not and the transmission slips you've probably got an internal problem inside the transmission. If it's a manual transmission it could be the hydraulic fluid is low if you have a hydraulic clutch, or it could be the clutch itself. If you've got an older clutch that's not hydraulic, it could be out of adjustment, or the clutch itself is bad.
your 3rd to 4th shift sensor in your trans needs to be replaced.
Could be transmission bands are worn and require adjustment or replacement Try changing transmission fluid and filter
your transmission could be shot. if it will not shift at all, then you will need a new one.
probably something wrong with the transmission like a gear fault or a transmission glitch or overheat. Take it to a repair shop or do some test maitanenence yourself.
You take it to a Transmission Shop and have them work on it. When it starts slipping that generally means something is wrong. Good Luck and Remember.Change Your Mind, Not Your Oil.Use the First In Synthetic Motor Oil's.See My Bio For Information & Contact Details.
No the transmission will not overheat, the wrong type of fluid could just ruin it the transmission. Same with also using too low or high amounts of fluid. That's why they recommend using the right type of transmission fluid.
The cost of the repair of a transmission depends on the what is wrong with it. It could range from about $100 to several thousand if it needs to be replaced.
Could be anything from an engine management problem to the transmission failing
It could be a number of things going wrong. Try dropping the transmission pan and changing the transmission oil filter and transmission fluid.
Transmission fluid is burnt. I recommend taking it to a transmission shop to have it flushed and your transmission checked for any damage such as worn bands, worn clutch or torque converter
