Ok so I know many of you are going to want to immediately jump on the "your tranny is shot" thread however it doesn't add up for me. The car was running fine with no lights on, then I had a light front end collision (shoved the rad into the engine, mangled the upper rad support, etc. But there was no major mechanical damage). The car sat for 3 months until I fixed it. Now upon first start up and test drive I have a flashing D5, tcs light is on as well. When I tried to drive it in D5 it doesn't shift into lower gears. It doesn't engage into sport shift. If I start in D1 and manually shift through the gears it runs great with no hesitation or slipping. I think it's very strange that the Trans would go bad over night. I'm thinking a sensor or electrical connection was damaged in the crash, but I'm not sure what to look for.
