Its only about $17 so I guess its not the worst part to replace. After some other diagnosing of course.

Trans control malfunction, which leads me to the other code of Output Shaft Speed Sensor Circuit. Its being acting up lately and throwing codes. It was usually because it had little metal shavings on it which gave it the wrong readings and would put my car in limp mode. This is the third time ive cleaned it in about 4 months. Each time has been remarkable better then the last, leading me to assume its cleaning the trans out.

Yea I hate them myself, but around here anything that isnt auto is somewhat hard to find. Unless its a honda of course. Ill probably just pull one from another tranny I have at school and buy a new one if that is the problem.

I dont know if anyone else is going to check in on this thread but is there anyway a vacuum leak could cause a trans problem.

Other than a higher idle, I doubt it. Have you dropped the pan, and cleaned the magnet in there? That may help with the build up on the sensor. I would get a new sensor, as they aren't expensive, and as you know, they are easy to change. Even a bad sensor that doesn't set any codes can make it shift a little off, now that I think back a ways. The GF's Sundance was acting a little off, and after driving a known 10 mile distance the trip odometer only shown about 9 miles.
After replacing the output sensor it was fine, the mileage was also correct. But this is a '93 model, so what may not be that critical then, would prolly freak out NGC. Granted it was a barely perceptible difference in shifts, but when you are familiar enough with a car, you just know something is not right.

I just recently flushed the trans and cleaned the magnet. Ill definitely check it though.

If you have an old hard drive lying around, Pull the magnets out of it. (If you don't want to ever use it again) slap them on the pan, doesn't need to be internal. Those things will pull anything magnetic out of the oil. They are by far the strongest magnets I've come across.

I somewhat disagree if it was a 1gn auto. This ngc trans is a bitch.

The A604/41te trans has been around since the late 1980's NGC wasn't even thought of yet.

So im gonna sound like a complete noob, but ima give it a try. For an MTX swap in an 04 up:
1. You need the pcm from an MTX?
2. Can you use your skim module without changing anything?
3. What trannys can you use?
