Jeep works very sluggishly ( bogging down ) when put in drive. If I start in first/second, shift to third than drive it works fine. This problem just started happening. It was not slipping at all. Was wondering what I should go after first. Not sure if there is a sensor that I can test myself. Once I am going and in drive everything is fine.
