Default If the car is posting 17125's your TC is toast. Stop driving the car before
you take out the tranny..

You put it in reverse and nothing happens. A slight delay is normal.

Default Mine went at 54k with no warning (no codes) and took the tranny with it...
....AND my VIN indicated that this was the 'improved' TC. Quote for R&R was $6700. TC's alone are much less, though. Warranty?
