Hi
I just fixed the infamous broken shifter and now this happens. The car has 200k miles so I guess it was expected. The OD light is blinking, DTC code P0733, and it's having trouble engaging 3rd gear. The gear will engage if I release the accelerator for a short period. I took it to my mechanic and he quoted $2000 for a new transmission. No way I can afford that. I have read here that it could be the bands, the solenoid or the servos. I'm willing to give it a shot but I need some guidance. What should I check first and how do I do it? Please note that I don't have a lift but I do have a jack with 4 jack stands. Don't think I feel comfortable dropping the whole transmission though.
Thanks guys.
