Engine Mechanical problem
2000 Dodge Neon Front Wheel Drive Automatic 112000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
So my question to anybody who can solve this mysterey is, I have a check engine light on my 2000 plymouth neon and the reason that I have been told is because it sputters when changing 1st to second gear even though its an automatic. You can feel it struggle to get to second gear but it does it. And for that I am scared to get the car inspected because I live in Ny and with a check engine light its an automatic fail. Does anybody know what I can do to get my check engine light off so I can pass inspection
