It hasn't happened again since last week. Never happened when the sensor caused me to have abs/brake light on. Seems it has to do with that wss. Trans was replaced by PO at 150k, has 192k now, but, while I was going to check the fluid last summer, got too busy. The one time I did try, I couldn't even get the large allen bolt out. Started removing the pan nuts, and the fluid was nice and yellowish, so, I stopped, figuring it was clean enough. Once this spring hits, will retry to get a real level check.

Just got new WSS today, hope to install it this weekend. Will update later.

- Got the a8 (front) wss installed in the rear and haven't had any trans issues since. - eriklane 2016-01-21 20:58:13 (159 views)
  - More follow up - and zero limp modes since, obviously the wss was causing that. - eriklane 2016-02-13 20:38:56 (102 views)
