Code: Lock Up Function slipping or Not Engaged
I have a 2000 Volvo V70, Not R-design and not turbo.
My car is currently at a transmission shop and I am awaiting their diagnosis.
The code stated, Lock-up function slipping or not engaged.
I have little to no knowledge of cars, but at "first": look theguy threw around word like, convertor, "concern regarding a computer partthat is about $1,065, and clogging filter......
I have no idea what of this means, but he also stated good news I do notneed new transmission, but just parts replaced. The draw to using this shop waswith them replacing parts he warranty's the entire transmission for 3years/ 50kmiles. So I figure it would be okay to just replace parts?
I did research, by searching the code. I say terms,....such as
Torque converter, a different part TC Lock-up solenoid, and S1-S5 Solenoid.
Main questions,
1. Thoughts, is it better to replace parts or entire transmission?
2. What terms/ or parts could I expect to hear back for the mechanic?
3. Where should to research to insure he is charging me the correct amountfor parts?
Any thoughts, suggestions, ideas are welcome.....
Thank you,
