Got the handy code reader out and its throwing 2 codes for the transmission module. I'm not sure what that means as she shifts perfectly and her rpms are not out of whack. I was driving right along, She made it up the hill without any hassle and never once felt like she was losing power, stopped for gas and she pinged. I was wondering if you guys have dealt with this problem. or if its a tough job to replace on your own. or it its really worth it. She has "high" miles but she doesn't act like it. And this problem is def new! Thanks for all the feed back!

You need to find out what the codes mean. To know what it's telling you. You may only need a fluid and filter change, if it's never had one.
Glad it's running better. Save yourself some money next time on the seafoam and go for what I suggested. Seafoam has no tolean (cleaning agent for fuel systems components)It's just a very thin petroleum product.
A very good friend of mine researched this for me. And found this on their web site. So not the best bang for the buck.
