[QUOTE="alantiong, post: 624319, member: 19754"] very unlikely the tcu error.. if it stucked in 3rd gear... it has to be along the pressure line. valve body controls the pressure.. and solenoid activates the on/off. and of course.. and pressure switch.. these three elements controls the whole sequence of gear change.. i guess the best thing to do is to send it in for a bench test.. EH in kepong does that.. they take out the whole gb and put it on a bench test and real time diagnostic... seems like u have a blocked valve body... if that is the case.. EH can do a ultrasonic cleaning.. they dun tell you though. [/QUOTE]
