I would say you should let him give it a trial.

Though there are many sensors on an automatic transmission. Speed sensors, temperature sensors and pressure sensors, but these rarely fail.
I am guessing that he's implying that it is the solenoids that needs replacing, not sensors. Mechanics mix the two. Sensor is an input device while solenoid is an output device.

You will do this thread a lot of great service if you snap the pictures of the parts that were replaced and the eventual outcome of the repairs/procedures.

Thanks,

AutoJando
Okay. I will revert with the result. Thanks

Good evening esteemed car gurus.
My car a Toyota Corolla 2010 automatic transmission model is having serious gear issues.

It started when I took it to mechanic to change gear box cop and shaft because of the noise it makes and constant vibrations. After changing all these the car started having sluggish movement, skips and de-accelerates on motion. At times when I pedal on motion it will be as if no gear was engaged until it picks. I was advised to change the gear oil, clean filter and plugs which I have done but the issue still continued. Pls car experts what could be the cause of this problem and where can I fix it in Abuja.

Thank you.

Does the speedometer work when it starts behaving like that? If it does not work. Does the gear select properly when it starts fluctuating? Does the BRAKE light on the dashboard come on when it starts?

No the speedometer doesn't read because this is noticable when gear is on Park.

The gear selection is weird though delays quite a bit I think
Brake light doesn't come on
