You might be hyper-aware of the solenoid in P now; that has always made noise in mine but once I started having NPN switch trouble, I got very aware of it. Or, it's slightly out of alignment making much more noise, that could explain things.
There is a transmission limp-home that can occur if the trans thinks it's broken (or the NPN switch is dodgy). IIRC, it'll stay in a high gear but you can get lower ones manually shifting it. That's also noticeable if it doesn't clear, which it usually does on a restart, then you just have both lights on and nothing seems wrong. There will be a code, this may help narrow it.
Engine limp-home (like the throttle body) can't be ignored. Once that's tripped, it stays tripped, and it's ugly.
