Re: just paid a transmission shop to fix the p1870 error cod
me being as cheap as i am, i would say thats fair, they could have told you your trans was shot, and around here you would have paid $2500 minimum to rebuild it, in todays world, its good to see someone who can simply "fix" it, rather than replace it

Re: Transfer case question
