Still no snow in Madhappiness. If it doesn't snow, I'll have to clean the garage in case Matt needs to tear into his tranny here. I've already warned him that trannys are not something that I have worked on except to change the fluid and filters.

If there is any way you can swing it, that is probably the way to go unless it is something simple like a solinoid. Also, I just thought of something, you might check connections for the electrical stuff that goes to sensors and solinoids etc on the tranny to see that something just isn't corroded and with the cold weather making poor contact. That might throw a code.

We had about 5 inches down this way in Wichita. Seemed like a bit more than that in the drive way yesterday afternoon when I went out with the shovel to clear things off so folks would have a place to park when they came home from work.

Looked out yesterday about 2:00 PM and the stuff was coming down side ways and I couldn't see the houses on the other side of the street.

We had a complete miss here in Madhappiness. We just had wind and the cold weather. No snow, rain or sleet, so the mailman doesn't have an excuse.

So far snow missed us here in slowhio. Stinging cold rain a little wind, you should see the guy from Florida, he is freezeing his butt off, with his teeth chattering. :-)
