    P0770 - Transmission, ECU replacement and persistent code

    Interesting.....I might have to try this. Bummer I just put in a new rad like a year ago would have been a perfect time to do that

    P0770 - Transmission, ECU replacement and persistent code

    Shifts through all gears and OD properly, still throwing the code

    P0770 - Transmission, ECU replacement and persistent code

    Having a reman transmission (and TC) and a working ECU I wonder what the biggest risk is for me at this point. Realistically everything is working the way it should, with some sort of electrical issue. I've done this in the past, but I'm definitely going to check all my grounds when I do the big...

    P0770 - Transmission, ECU replacement and persistent code

    I’m thinking it’s a wiring deal as well. I’m just not sure where to start in that situation. Throttle being stiffer because of the line pressure valve totally makes sense. Because of how consistent the trans is performing since putting in a functioning ECU I have a good feeling this trans doing...

    P0770 - Transmission, ECU replacement and persistent code

    Hey everybody. So this is in part a follow up to this thread. Going to be detailed with this because I think some little things along the way may be important to figuring out what's going on / I may be missing something. I had a bit over 300k miles on my trans (A340F) and it was running fairly...

    Just wanted follow up and say thanks Tim. I contacted Yota1 and they are definitely working this job for me. Great people and immediately gave great insight. Also wanted to say thanks again as your posts and Snowbound played a big role in helping find my last 4Runner when it was stolen in...

    Same story here. Read your post. I’ve put on around 1.5k miles since I posted and it still runs and shifts but it’s loud. Going to have a reman trans put in this fall. Like another reply mentioned these decisions all have to do with finances at some point. I’ve used 3rd gens as DDs for the...

    I have an ultragauge which works as well - just needed to customize settings (which only works on 99+ still obv)

    Preparing for a long trip and then...high trans temps...

    This is all super helpful. I've got a line on a reman auto trans from Toyota directly for my A340F (I guess that's still possible) and I'm going to weight that option against a junkyard find. Though I may have already found one from somebody in town for 400-500. I'm looking to keep using my...

    Thanks a lot for this test. My symptoms are exactly as you describe. The increase in noise and the dragging brakes / driving through mud. Time to get out the ol' pocketbook....

    From what I've read the P0770 is usually a bad sign overall. It definitely needs more pump to get going, I think regardless of how the rest of the trans is doing if I need a new TC I'm going to install a different trans. If I can find a used one from someone reputable near me I may go that...

    I will say that today I experienced some shuddering while backing up and end of day got a P0770 code so not looking good. I've noticed my trans to bit a bit louder than usual over the last 10k miles which is why I made sure to get a drain and fill at 300k. Still no whining or significant...

    Oh sorry if I ignored this question earlier, I had it in the post. Put in a new filter 2k miles ago when I did a drain and fill.

    Responding to this because I think it's important for search results but the aluminum Koyo doesn't have a trans cooler so I'm just using the 70268. Just took a 3 hour trip today as a "warm up" and drove on some mountain roads and never saw above 200. Was around 180-185 the whole time and was 90...

    I should have put it in Lo. Good point. This seems to be the reality of the situation I was in and I'm overthinking it a bit.
