99 V6 wagon automatic
I had a very similar experience when I used 2nd gear for engine braking while descending a long hill. Shortly after leveling out I thought I smelled something overheating, and the check gear box and then check engine lights came on, and as I recall, I could not shift properly. Both lights went off after a bit (took a few restarts for the check engine to go off). Had the car checked by my saab indie - no codes found. No problems have recurred. Apparently engine braking with the automatic is NOT a good idea despite what the user's manual says....
