Hi Everybody,

Put the car up on the lift and changed out the transfer case, transmission, and differential fluids. While I had it up on the lift, the transmission had a noticeable left list. Is this an indication of a broken motor mount? How does one know when one fails? I also tripped a P0700 code... car runs great, but error signal will not go away and I cant clear it.

Thoughts:
1. could be a bad motor mount although they usually make a clunking sort of noise or could be a bad transmission mount, has been know to happen.
2. P0700 is a generic code that just says there is a tranny code stored. As far as I know only a dealer or equivalent code reader can read that code. FYI the P0700 will go away if the stored code is a one time deal and clears on it's own. Get a copy of the 06 FSM from Sir Sam's NOOB site for codes (05 FSM does not have them)

1) Tranny mounts look good and the left one was obviously replaced recently.

2) Yea, I know it is the transmission error signal. Pulled the negative lead for a couple hours to try to get it to clear... no bueno.

3) I ended up pulling out a rubber hose that had a vent cap. Does the transfer case have a vent nipple somewhere?
