Don, I don't think the 9135 will tap the data stream realtime. It'* just a code reader.

Yes, it was P1870 on mine also.

Yes, I should get it scanned. However, shouldn't I expect the code to come back if it happens again? I am thinking it was one of those fluke things. It'* been running OK for last 2 months (including 2 three hour hwy/country drives).

I just looked it up on Alldata and your right, trans slippage.

The poertrain control module monitors the TCC slip by calculating the diffrence between the engine speed and the transmission output shaft speed, if the PCM detects an excessive amount of slip when the TCC is engaged then DTC 1870 sets...

Action taken when the dtc sets

The PCM inhibits TCC operation
The PCM inhibits 4th gear if the transmission is in hot mode
The PCM illuminates the MIL
