It could be SH404SEF.. but its not a new installation.. could it be a toggle in this app?.htaccess was recently implemented for SEO and SEF purposes and for using SH404SEF but not changed. Its the joomla standard .htaccess with no modifications.I did in fact move to a new server but the images are where they are supposed to be in the their respective directories.No on the uploading question.No new third party plugins except for SH404SEF which like I said isnt really new. If I gave you FTP or site backend access do you think that would help you determine the problem?I REALLY REALLY appreciate your help. _______________________________________Website I developed for funyjunk.com

Never heard of type A. Might be an old one that is not prodiced any more.I have used dexron/mercon with no issues before.As far as what your trans requires? I would think dex/merc as well.
