The P2714 showed up again. I think it's time to change the valve body.

I have the same random code on my 300,000 mile 200 as well.

It happens once a month or so. So far zero drivability issue. In fact I’ve never noticed it doing anything weird.

Watching
 
Anxiously watching! Crossing fingers for a successful outcome. I’ve been using sport manual shift mode to avoid having to clear codes but every once and a while there is a delay in engaging into reverse which makes me very nervous.

New remanned transmissions from Toyota seem to be like 3.5-4K before any labor.

Would be thrilled to find a 1.5k fix!!! Not scared to get dirty but am nervous about keeping track of all the little parts going into the right places.

Good luck and thanks for all the content and learnings so far. Cheers
 
Strongly recommend MyLParts, 35410-60680, 28%off, with code CL5, another 5~10% off.

New valve body has about 400 miles on it, everything works fine, shifts buttery smooth. Continue observing.

Don't forget to use brake cleaner to clean all solenoids when put them on new valve body.

I would like to update you with the latest progress and hope I did not disturb you.

After using a brand new VB, P2714, P0761 still appeared after several weeks. So, I found the Landcruiser Specialist, Shawn listened to me very patiently and described the whole process. Then I put the truck there for inspection. Shawn pointed out that there is a new VB, which is great and he believed that the Solenoid S3 and SLT needed to be replaced.

He said that if the truck had not been through harsh towing, and the clutch and other parts should continue to be used, no rebuild needed for now. These parts usually have a long life. Shawn replaced with OEM Solenoids also the filter and WS. The mornings in recent days are cold(40F in TX), but everything is normal when driving, and the code has not appeared for the time being.

My conclusion is that if the internal components such as the clutch are not damaged, replacing the VB and some Solenoids will most likely completely fix this problem. I hope it’s really fixed this time — and hopefully this will be the last update.

Shawn's shop link:
 
Any updates the last few weeks? What is the updated VB that Shawn installed along with the solenoids?

I've been having this code pop up and been reading the last few weeks as I get ready to replace the VB myself.
 
The transmission works great, no issue anymore.

To summarize, from the perspective of time and money, the latest practice order is:

1. Transmission Fluid Replacement (Lowest Cost, Easiest to Perform)
Replace the transmission fluid. This is the simplest and most cost-effective operation.

Recommended Fluid: Use Maxlife as an alternative to the original WS fluid to further reduce costs.

2. Solenoid Replacement (Moderate Cost, Targeted at Specific Error Codes)
Based on Error Codes: Replace specific solenoids (e.g., S3, S4, SLT, SLU) according to the diagnostic trouble codes.

Where to Buy: Rockauto offers solenoids at about 25% of OEM prices, with good user reviews.

3. Valve Body Replacement or Repair (Higher Cost but Still Cheaper Than Full Rebuild)
New Valve Body: A brand-new OEM valve body can be purchased online for around $1,000.

Repair Kits: If you have strong DIY skills, you can purchase a repair kit($200~$300) to rebuild the valve body yourself and save even more.

4. Professional Transmission Rebuild (Highest Cost)
Total Estimate: Steps 1-3 cost around $1,500 (excluding labor).

Comparison: Compared to a professional rebuild or replacement, which typically costs $4,000–$6,000, these steps offer significant savings.

Final Option: If all the above attempts fail, seek professional advanced diagnostics and consider a full rebuild.

Even in a full rebuild, the new VB and new Solenoids also will be reuse, not waste money at all.
