Shortly after starting the engine; take a turn left and then made; i turn on the abs light shortly after engine light lit too and, days later, the abs light went out. the next day i started the engine; running the car at 15 to 35 miles, sounds a hit; in the transmission and abs light comes on again. this has been doing so far. *tr
