Chevy traction control light prompts hard shift in
Transmission problem
2006 Chevy HHR 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 64000 miles
My Traction Control Light comes on and immediately the transmission starts shifting Hard, shortly after that, the check engine light comes on. We had the transmission checked by a trasmission shop, they found nothing wrong with the transmission. He said it could be some kind of sensor...If its the Traction Control sensor, can we just disable the system.

There is an issue with some debris getting into the camshaft actuator solenoids. They have screens to protect but will occasionally get plugged. Frequent oil changes will help. Pull codes and find where to look.
