Default Pls help me with this error code: 17087 P0703

Can anyone help determine what this code points to? What do I need to be aware of that is not working/going to malfunction?

Thanks.

Looks like a TC code. Is the tranny slipping?

Default The tranny had slipped a couple of times last week... (m)

but I didn't think it was a major problem. Should I just clear it and let it go?

WHat are the symptoms that it may be an issue? Tranny fluild is low?

Thanks for your help....

Default Could be fluid related, or the clutch plate. A car will NEVER fix itself. If it started slipping..

...it will only get worse.

I would try clearing the code and see if it comes back. I can't remember the code #, but I had a little slipping in the TC when I was under warranty. I scanned the car and called the dealer. I gave them the code. Their exact response:"Get the car tomorrow here morning, drive as little as possible." It was not the code you have, it was an "excessive slipping" code. So the tranny codes ususally seem to be more serious than engine codes.

If you check the fluid, make sure it is at the correct temp. IIRC, it should be 40C to check the level.
