So I called this morning and mentioned the nss, and they said they would check everything out today.
They just called back saying that they took everything apart (pan screen etc), even removed the nss and cleaned it a little. There wasn't any corrosion.
After taking it all apart they realized they were missing about 1.1 qts of fluid, they mentioned something about an air pocket.
He also said its hard to know how much fluid you have in there with no dipstick. I wanted to tell him why didn't you just ****ing use google lol
anyways i forgot to even ask what the code was, wonder if there is a fluid level sensor or something. i can call back on monday and ask.
gonna go pick the truck up soon, hopefully everything is all good now.
lol
