    From Michael Whorton@21:1/5 to All on Tue Oct 4 03:18:02 2016
    Okay my car is a beater and i only use it to get to work. It went into limp mode and the code says p0700 generic transmition problem. Is there a way to disable limp mode so i can continue to drive it until it dies? I cant afford a new trans..thanks guys

    Can you afford a new car instead? Because the one you're driving now
    will be immobile within a couple of weeks whether you find a way to
    disable limp-home mode (for the record, I don't know of a way) or not.
    Have you checked the fluid level? It could be leaking.

    To be perfectly honest it was SUPER low on oil when it started happening so i filled it with oil. (Small oil leak at bottom of car). And all i'm saying is that if its going to be like $2000 for a fix. I might as well buy another beater. Thanks for the help, lord knows i need it. I wish there was a way to disable it.

    Has adding fluid helped? If not, the damage may already have been done. Usually, that transmission has done much better in the "cloud cars," than it did in the minivans.
