So I was driving from Long Island into Manhattan, I hit a few bumpy roads on the LIE, and all of a sudden my Check Engine Light, My SRS light and like 2-3 other lights go off. Clearly I'm worried. I take an exit, I turn off my car and I turn it back on and only my CEL is on.

I go to Midas today and I get them to diagnoise it and it turned out to be error code P0740- CONVERTOR CLUTCH SYSTEM PROBLEM. basically a transmission issue. I also had my transmission rebuilt last October. So currently I should be under the warranty, since im not over the Year or 12,000 miles.

Anyone have experiences with third-party warranties with this issue, primarily AAMCO. any feedback would be appreciated.

get it in as soon as you can.

yeah im gonna go in monday, any other thoughts?

Yea get it in. Its a trans code. If its one of those it usually has something to do with the trans. Seeing its a tq converter code, the trans will most likely have to be riped down and rebuilt according to the damage its caused

i had it rebuilt in october by aamco, so i should be fine under the 1yr 12,000 warranty right?

well i went to aamco today, and they checekd it out, and it turned out it wasnt a transmission issue, they checked the cables/the plugs, could've been loose or something and to double check they put the computer to test the tranny and everything checekd out A-OKAY. so right now theres no CEI, but that code isnt bad news all the time. just reporting so it can maybe help someone. : )

so guess what, as i was driving to six flags on saturday, my CEL and my SRS light went on as i was normally driving. 2 weeks earlier, i had a similar problem, i went to aamco and apparenlty there was nothing wrong.. if you readmy earlier thread. I go back this morning to find out whats wrong, turns out there is a transmission issue based on the code. so i dont know what the deal is. if ive been driving wiht a fucked up tranny all this time. i'm kinda mad, but they have my car right now, and i explained them the deal that i dont feel safe driving around in a car like that, espeically work done by them.. so they are gonna try to fix it and check the transmission out. OYE VEY.
