Well it depends on what the PCM is looking at...
If the PCM is calling for the TCC to lock but there is enough slip when locked then the PCM may think that there is an issue with the TCC when it could be the trans..
I think you need to have it checked out.. It could be as simple as a bad TCC Solenoid.. at least figure out whats wrong with it so that you can decide what to do..

check with them if the warranty replacement of tranny lines was done. I did mine on the 92 last year, they did it all for free. it maybe just that you lost enough fluid.

Ohhhh if I got that message sooner....
I went there and they said the trannys lines needed to be replaced at a cost of $142
As for the misfire they wanted to pull the codes and charge me $75 which I said I pulled them already (thanks to Jake for letting me use his device) but they said they had to... So I declined.
does this sound right?
