Just because a fix that has not worked for you is not evidence that it is not valid fix. The fact that it has worked well for many others completely invalidates that viewpoint and assertion.

It could be that your problem goes deeper than the previously suggested fixes.

A thinking person might be tempted to conclude that if the fix works for some time, but then returns, it has something to do with the parts touched, but something else has been missed during the visual inspection.

The advice given here is given freely, but without guarantees.

In fact, some of the fixes, especially the abs module repair are routinely used at dealerships when the vehicles are out of warranty. In that case there is somewhat of a guarantee ... but you pay for it.

I said once before and I'll say it again, that when it is a run around in trying to figure out those abs, its the beginning to the end of that transmission. Im speaking the truth. the transmission is leaving you alzee
