Default Volvo S40 Turbo 2000 130,000k- Grinding/jumping when accelerating

When I start my car the check engine light will immediately appear and not go off. When ever I accelerate, or put any strain on the engine it feels as if the trans is slipping. However it is not as big a jump as the trans messing up. I thought maybe something to do with the drive train because it only happens when I accelerate, and still is smooth when I am stationary. I checked the trans fluid and that is fine. There seems to be a slight burning from the the car as well. I am unsure what to do, if to check for UJ to be shot or where to begin. Any help would be great! Thanks
