Have had zero issues with the transmission (now at 150k) until about two months ago. Just a little bit of hesitation (sort of felt like limp mode) between third and fourth I believe. Turn it off and on again and it drove perfectly. Only did it a few times. Then a month later I get a check engine light. Took it to the shop and it was both air pumps under the intake, rodents had seized them with a nest. Obviously I told him about the transmission so the air pumps were fixed and got new transmission fluid and filter. I felt it was too coincidental that the issues were so similarly timed so my mechanic took a very long time making sure there was no other rodent wire damage etc. Now about a month later that limp mode has happened a few times but more importantly twice, not long after startup, while accelerating from a stop it has slipped and then BAMB you are in first. Is the transmission already dead? Seems premature at only 150k miles.
