Your car is going into transmission limp mode, and your post with yourhorriblespellingis usless, learn the english language.
You need to change the PRNDL switch board under the shifter assembly.

 

[:@] thanks auditech is this switch expensive....my car isnt under warranty!

 

I don't think its that bad, maybe 200-300 range. Just pop up the trim around the shifter, then pop out the four clips around the shifter and lift up the chrome piece around the shifter. That entire piece is what you are changing.

 

Do u have any pics of this switch as i heard there are 2 switches

 

No, its the entire assembly, it has two switches, and a set of magnetic brushes that brush accross the sensor matt that tells the TCM what gear you are in. So if you remove that big chrome plated cover under the shifter you will see an electronic circuit board underneath that, thats what you are replacing, it comes as a whole unit, switches and sensor.
