Hello everyone, i have a 98 catera 3.0 or MV6 to you all it has an automatic transmission with a minor problem, Ok just today the transmission light turned on when I was on the highway it has come on one other time since i had the car and it happens in third gear i think because the car is going 80mph and accelerating but it always goes away after restarted and runs very well The car runs super and the transmission shifts seem fine could it be Low fluid?, bad fluid? the Transmission ECM Module? or any other ideas? Bad connection? Dirty connection? anything? Car has 115k but doesnt drive like it. I just don't know what to do, dont really want to spend 900+ in the end on a new /rebuilt transmission especially if i don't need one which every place will tell me i do so they can get my money My first step so far is to check fluid level and add a high performance transmission additive made by Lucas to seal anything, free any sticky valves, and recondition current fluid. Is this a common problem? any common easy fixes? The transmission itself seems very durable it just may be electronics but im not sure. Any Input is greatly appreciated :)I saw the transmission info and articles on the site and there great
