1996 850 - 3rd transmission - still have same problem 850

These were the problems I loved to deal with. Wish I could drive it! ME TOO.

Are you sure that the transmission is the problem? Is it possible the engine performance is the issue? IT ACTS MOSTLY LIKE A TRANS PROBLEM BUT IT ALSO ACTS LIKE A FUEL DELIVERY/IGNITION PROBEM, E.G., A MINOR LOSS OF POWER WHEN ACCELERATING PAST 2100 RPM.

If you and the mechanic really think the trans. is the issue, then you may be having problems with the control module. IF YOU'RE FERERRING TO THE TRANS COMPUTER, NO CODES APPEARED. HE DOESN'T THINK THAT'S THE PROBLEM BUT.........MAYBE. HOW CAN ANYONE KNOW IT'S THE TRANS COMPUTER WITHOUT CODES?

Or, a shared sensor between the engine and transmission. Like the throttle position sensor or vehicle speed sensor. Is the ABS light on? ABS WAS ON DURING THE PERIOD OF ALL THIS TRANS TROUBLE. BUT HE IDENTIFIED A BAD ABS CONTROL UNIT, WHICH WAS REPLACED, AND THE LIGHT WENT OUT. WHAT'S THE CONNECTION BETWEEN ABS AND THIS? I'LL HAVE THE SENSORS CHECKED. THANX.
