silverton Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Might need to run the ol girl to a transmission shop. Between the shift solenoid and the incorrect gear ratio codes, your transmission is one foot out the door. Much like engine oil, transmission fluid does have a life span, it doesn't get dirty like engine oil so it's a much longer interval. I figure you replaced the fluid as symptoms were starting to appear? It's akin to putting fresh oil in an engine with rod knock. It can help, but the problem still needs to be addressed. The 4eat in my 2001 made it about 212k miles before failing with unknown service history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayb5606 Posted September 8, 2022 Author Share Posted September 8, 2022 The transmission goes in and out of limp mode when it’s not in limp mode the car drives completely fine shifts smoothly with no problems then randomly I’ll put the car in drive and goes right into limp mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Most likely, either you have an intermittent electrical gremlin, or your transmission is about to yield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
