MN12

The first time this happened I also had a communication with drivers seat listed too so I assume there is a module housed there as well

I have had an issue crop up a couple times and have been able to clear it but I don't know how to get to the root cause. When I start the car the odometer will be blank and if placed in drive seems to be locked in the top gear. Both times I have been able to clear it by shutting down, opening the door and restarting. I pulled the codes and there are multiple communication failures from seemingly unrelated systems like the VSS, instrument cluster, PATS, etc. would all these be related to the CAN Bus or am I looking at a flakey PCM? 230,000 miles

I second that. I am getting ready to pull the motor out of my 2008 to replace it. Any advice or gotchas would be good to know. From your picture it looks like you were able to disconnect the AC compressor and leave it in place without discharging it is that correct?
