Hello all, new to this site and ny thoughts from anyonre would be appreciated...
1) Vehicle has 180k, and was serviced at 174K.. Drove from nw Montana to Mpls, MN back in 11/2006 with no real problems. Then, locally tossed on another 3k in mileage ( from November to end of April )...
2) I had then moved 2 blocks from work, so the vehicle sat from 4/30/2007 to 8/3/2007. I then drove it from Mpls, MN to Illinois ( 350 miles ) and pulled in to some freinds with an automotive shop and noticed I had a small leakage (puddle) on ground coming from what looked like between engine/trans area...and yet the fluid level was fine still. He tossed me a bottle of trans conditioner/sealer...in which I didn't use...until after my below problem.
3) I then only drove it that same day, and parked it since 8/3/07.. 3 days ago, I took it out, went into town....( maybe 3 miles) made it back and upon pulling in the drive...it just did nothing.
4) No "change in tone" ( or noise) of engine or trans...at all while trying to shift, but one thing I did notice is that my "air bag" lite flashes intermittently now.
5) Would anything with the TCC cause this condition?
Of course, a transmission shop says $ 2,000.00...but I feel it is much more minor than this.
Again, thank-you for taking the time to read, and my fingers are crossed for the easy solution.
Thank-you,
Jim
