I wonder what the catch is though, seeing how it's Mister Transmission..... 1996 2.5LT V6 Contour ATX My Tour+help/info pics E0 rims, Gutted Pre-Cats,CTA Custom Exhaust & Intake, Diablo Chip.

If the code is anything but a tranny problem what can they do? We need someone with a CEL to do a test. 99 CSVT Green/Tan # 84 of 2760 Built on Wednesday, September 30, 1998 15.376 @ 92.00 MPH Stock 75,000Km 96 Contour GL 2.5L V6 ATX 170,000Km

It's great if the CEL is related to the transmission (usually if your car is OBD-II). But, what can Mr. Transmission do about a lean bank of cylinders, a DPFE or EVAP system? What's really odd is how this isn't advertised on their website. You'd think such a huge promotional campaign would filter online They only make mention of using a scanner for transmission diagnosis. Right now, I'm more comfortable using my OBD-II scanner as a starting point. Richard \| Focused 24-7 2002 Focus ZTS...+275,000km and beyond!

The guy told me the car will not pass an e-test right now if it was to be tested. So I gotta look into repairing my EGR now.
