Hi, everybody. I'm gonna buy an early 2003 TL and I know the
transmission of this model. Almost 160K on the car and the seller told
me there was no transmission replacement history. If so, does this mean
the transmission on the car is OK and has no that defect? Thank u all.[img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

ok - I have an 03 TL-S. 80k. Feels like transmission is "shuddering" while shifting (occasionally). I read about xmission issues with this year. Mechanic put it on diagnostic and all that came up was ABS codes, no xmission codes. Any suggestions?
