I have a 2008 Lexus GS350 AWD, for some reason the check engine light and he VSC light came on. I took it to a shop and they told me that the cold is reading D solenoid. I cleared the code, and the VSC light went off as well as the check engine light, but came back on after about 5 minutes. I'm being told that it could be the shift solenoid, but other people are telling me that it could just be the automatic transmission control. The shop recommended me getting a new transmission, but I'm not trying to shell out 4k for something that could only cost me less than a grand to fix. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
My car is showing a code for D Solenoid and wont go into 5th Gear, what could cause this issue? Shift Solenoid, Automatic Transmission Control?
