[QUOTE="Fred , post: 954564, member: 61595"] Well, it finally happened to my '02 creampuff. At 104K I got the crazy shifting and flashing O/D light of death. I've been holding my breath waiting for the light since I got the ST @ 22K. My fluid and filter were VERY clean. I've always kept them changed regularly. Not flushed. (just my opinion) After a LOT of surfing here's what I did to deal with the problem. I bought a remanufactured valve body fron a very helpful ebayer. Installed it after watching a very detailed video on youtube. It works great now. I've put ~250 miles on it so far. Time will tell. I hope this helps someone. Fred '02 The instruction video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaHIK-dwhbA Sorry, I couldn't figger out how to post 2 links, duh. :) The valve body ebayer: [/QUOTE]
