First the transmission is about $3,600 twice what you were told
You take it to a trans shop they should use the proper test equipment & road test, to check out the codes & maybe just
a converter clutch solenoid is needed
If the trans fluid has never been changed every 3 years since
2003, then the trans may be done & have to be replaced
If the fluid is dark,smells or is burn't,don't change it, as that is not
a fix for anything & it will slip & be unusable.
If a trans shop doesn't take you on the road test or into the shop
to explain things or pitches a rebuilt trans, then try another shop
& go thru the routine a second time
In the end the trans may have to come out, but not from the codes
I see, until properly diagnosed (I used to own a trans shop hope
that helps)
Just keep in mind a fluid change (never a flush) won't remove
debris from the valve body or any solenoids
Changing a failed or clogged solenoid & changing somewhat
clean fluid maybe all you need --cross your fingers-- not many trans
live long - good luck
HI there i will try to help . first code P0741= transmission torque converter is stuck in the off bastion . 1. Check your transmission fluid level to see if low or might need replacing. 2.You might have a Faulty torque converter clutch solenoid valve. 3.If you can check Torque converter clutch solenoid valve harness or connectors 4.If you can check Torque converter solenoid valve circuit to see it is open or shorted. But first check your trans fluid '''
2 codeP0455=evaporative emission system leak detected . 1. check your fuel cap and mack shore it is on tight before replacing .
3.Code P1529= check T C M it might be do to code P0741. 1.Fix first code P0741and P0455 and clear codes and see if code P1529 comes back.
Code P1529 sets in the ECM (Engine Control Module) to advise that the TCM (Transmission Control Module) requested the ECM to turn on the MIL (Malfuntion Indicator Light). What this means is there's a transmission code set in the TCM. You will need a manufacturerspecific scan tool to pull Transmission codes and find out what's wrong with the trans. Some aftermarket scanners/code pullers only have the capability to pull Engine codes. -hope this helps
Replacing the EGR valve, its actuator, or your DPFE sensor could all be at fault. I would probably start with the valve itself since it's an EGR leak code. Your gas cap was a wasted repair. The gas cap would cause a P0441 or 445 evap code, but not an EGR code.
