Heard a sound, service engine soon" light on dash came on and then engine continued to race, enough when stopped and noise from transmission. All problems seem to have gone away on their own. Don't understand what happened and why. I don't want to take it to the dealer if the car is working okay now. Please help. Have you heard of this happening before? Is it a computer problem?
