my buddys got a 2008 3500 4x4 6.7l auto dodge and he has the smarty sr. and mbrp exhaust with full delete kit. the other day he was driving and got a p0700 code. he cleared it with the smarty, it came back right away, turned his smarty to stock cleared it and it came back. disconnected his batteries for 1/2 hour and it came back. he says it is shifting weird wont go into reverse and alot of other weird stuff. what could it be? the code we know is tranny related. he said he was running the smarty on level3 and i know he tows quite a bit so i was thinking his tranny might be fried, or torque convertor? any help appreciated.

 

Well just googling the code pops up pages saying ................ drum roll

p0700=internal trans controller p0700 code means replaces your TCM

 

how easy of a fix is that for him?

 

Im not sure what it all involves, Im sure if you give it a day or so on here some one can answer that , or research it for that make year and model truck .

 

got it figured out he ended up melting or welding the clutch packs/plates and they are going to replace the tranny under warrenty and he brings it in this week and should be done by friday they said

 

I would ask the dealer if he could pay the extra money for better transmission parts.
