PLEASE HELP dont got the money to buy new trans.someone said something about whole new valve body ?

Answers:

I really want to learn this stuff!?

Have the codes checked again, these models are known for P-1870 trans code-component slipping,which is nearly always t-converter slipping after extended highway driving.The TCC reg valve wears out in v-body causing this code ,and the result is higher pressure commanded by the pcm to correct the slippage.the result is always 1-2 bang shift after stopping and taking off again.Seen this many times before but it does not always turn the cel on.

What causes a 300 D Mercedes to vibrate a little in idle?Should The transmission be a bit jerky?

could also be your govenor binding when it gets hot. Since its easy to remove and extenally accesible, seems sensible to check first. Check for smooth operation by hand.

What year did Toyota first make the Tacoma in a doublecab and are they safe for children in the back seat?

Did the oil and filter inside the trans have any sparkly silver in them? If so, you've got a tranny coming apart. Did the trans. get flushed or just a change of the bottom pan oil and filter. If so , there's still about 4 gallons of old fluid in there. You might be having trouble with a internal seal or spring in the accumulator either leaking or broken. This will be either in the valve body or the side of the trans. Fairly easy to access. More diagnosis is required here which means to start some disassembly to inspect. Good luck.
