    2005 dodge stratus, check engine light came on a few days ago out of the blue, took it to an auto zone to see what was going on, read code P0700, transmission control module, i assume transmission is going bad, but the car drives and shifts fine. Also a code came up for the torque converter. Took it to a transmission shop, put it on a scanner, drove it, and said it definitely needs a new transmission.I am still not sure if the whole transmission needs to be replaced. How can i tell if a new transmission is really what is needed here?

    With the information you have given me, I can’t honestly say you need a new transmission based on the 0700 error code you have given me. The 0700 code is called a generic. It sets a pointer to other problems that may exist in your transmission.

    With the 0700 code, we have a good start. I need to know more, though. When the OBD-II tester listed the error code, there were probably some other codes listed with it. Can you give me the list of codes that were generated?

    From what you have told me, I can’t really say one way or another whether you need a new tranny or not, until you get me the codes, that is.

    If you can get me the list, I can help you a lot better.
