RE: 960 P0740 code
So, if it comes back on (200 miles and it is still off), where can I find the solenoid and is all I have to do to pull the tranny pan. I am thinking of changing the tranny fluid since it is shifting a little harder lately. It does have 243k miles on it now, so I guess I can't expect too smooth a shift. How much is the solenoid if I need it??

I guess I am going to have to get the part (or get rid of it). It is shifting pretty hard from 1st to 2nd. Is that a symptom of the solenoid being bad or is it something else? I also called FCP Groton and they said they have it for $255 which would be cheaper than the $284 plus tax from the dealer. If it is the A341E the filter is $18, if it is the other one, it is $30.

Yeah, the tag says AW30-30 A341E. I ordered the filter today since I would change it regardless of whether I need the solenoid or not. I figure why not spend $30 before I spend $300 since I will spend the $30 eventually anyway and who knows? I got 4 quarts of tranny fluid, I hope that is enough.

I took it apart to change the filter and the connector on the very front plug inside (I am assuming the SL solenoid) was cracked. The plastic around it crumbled when I pulled it out. My question is what do I do about the connector now? Is it ok to put it back together with the metal exposed ( I am assuming this is what was kicking the codes) or what do I have to do? I will be scraping the old gasket off the pan for a while. I will not put it back together until I hear something. The filter had a half inch cockroach in it by the way. They will live in anything won't they!
