Its weird man, thats why im suspecting the TCM.. but on the other hand ive heard that transmission speed sensors would do this, if faulty. IDK MANN, Japanese Ppl ****in love puzzles Smh
Well, honestly you don't have much to lose by trying a new speed sensor before a new transmission. If that sensor is faulty, its giving the TCM bad/incorrect input so it doesn't know what line pressure should be or when to shift.
A friend of mine had an '02 or '03 Maxima that had (I think) the same code. Damn thing barely made it up my driveway, trans was slipping and missing shifts. I changed the speed sensor, on that car its right behind the driver side front tire. Cleared the code & that car drove great afterwards! Code never came back on and trans shifted perfectly fine.
