Who changed the fluid - how?

In fixing something else unrelated recently, a transmission fault came up. Torque Converter application off etc. I cleared it, and so far it has not come back.

What was the code? What were the conditions the code came up?

I called one of the tranmission places in town, and he knew all about the error - apparantly seals fail in the tc, and as a result the tranmission pauses / misbehaves etc.

Which place?

The TCU watches the input power, and output power. They are not matching, so the TCU throws codes, turns off applications etc.

What do you mean "applications "

The guy at the tranmission place, said its likely the seals need to be replaced - upto $6K which is just not going to happen.

Any specifics -labor, parts?

Reading around on the internet, some people say they fixed the problem by adding more fluid. Just trying to get an idea, what some tranmission experts say.
