    My friends 2006 Tacoma V6 w/ A750E tranny is sluggish and slow when starting out in D or 4th gear. When in 1st 2nd or 3rd she is fine. My friend said he replaced all 4 shift solenoids and added Tranny fluid. I checked the fluid and it was 3 quarts low. Now that it is topped off there are still the same 7 codes popping up. Please see image. Not sure if I should open the tranny back up and check all the connections or start some where else like the PCM. I wouldn’t think that all 4 solenoids are bad and not something else. Thanks in advance.

    For only about 3 miles to my house but probably a couple hours of idle time.
    Come to find out my scanner wouldn’t let me clear the codes after my buddy replaced the solenoids. So I disconnected the battery terminals for about 10-15 mins while I cleaned the connections and now the check engine light is gone. My scanner can no longer que the codes. Funny how that worked out. The truck shifts normal now. I’ll have to ask my buddy if he disconnected the battery before he installed the solenoids.
