Acouple? Lol

Not exactly sure myself but either your cats are bad, and or the O2s arent working right. All those codes are related though.

Re: Need help reading codes

yeah, just a couple lol. i took it into my friend's dad's garage, hes a mechanic, and he ran my car again for codes with a better code reader. he came to the conclusion that this one thing needed to be replaced. i forgot what he called it. once that is replaced, it'll take care of all the O2 censor stuff. but for the Transmission Comp. Slipping code, he said that the worst possible case is that my torque converter is dying and will need to be rebuilt. that would cost me about 1200$. but thats just the worst thing that could be wrong and im really hopeing that isnt the case. he told me he'd check my oil pan or something for "shit". haha. i'll keep updateing later.
