Consumer Description

A CHECK ENGINE SOON SERVICE LIGHT ON THE DASH BOARD CAME ON. I HAD IT CHECKED AND FOUND OUT THE CODE WAS 1870, A TRANSMISSION CODE. I CALLED SEVERAL TRANSMISSION SHOPS AND THEY ALL STATED THAT THE PROBLEM IS GENERALLY THE ALUMINUM VALVE BODY HAS WORN AND NEEDS TO HAVE A STEEL SLEEVE REPAIR KIT INSTALLED. IT COST ME $265. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO. JUST CALL ANY OF THE TRANSMISSION SHOPS AND SEE HOW MANY OF THE VALVE BODIES HAVE BEEN REPLACED ON THE 1999 CHEVY S-10. MINE IS AN AUTOMATIC WITH A 4 CYLINDER ENGINE. *JB
