I was driving on the 22 fwy. and my car would no longer drive and now I can't get it to go into drive. I can put it in drive but it will not move. When I put it in drive the only thing that happens is it stays in place with rpm's revving

sounds like either your TCU (transmission control unit) or your shift solenoid/s,, can you take off if you put it in a lower gear than drive ?

Yes, I have. It was fine, but I went ahead and drained my tranny fluid and added new fluid anyway. Did not help at all. The old tranny fluid was still in new condition

There is a defect in the wave ring inside the case in those year model transmissions. It's not too bad of a fix if you are experienced in transmission work.

My 2003 Eclipse gts will only go into park and neutral. When I put it in drive or reverse my engine just revs to 2500 rpms. I was headed home from work and it kicked itself into neutral and I haven't been able to drive it since. Any help would be much appreciated

I have a 2003 Mitsubishi eclipse Spyder GS I have bled the clutch and it still will not go into reverse but I think I still might have air in it but all the other gears are just fine but I don't understand why it won't go into reverse

Not an answer but my 2003 won't go into park or any gear. Shifter moves inside and out but rolls off. What could that be?

Greetings, I would like someone to tell me which eclipse of which year you guys think is best to buy? Thanks in advance.
