Newbie (1/14)

  1. Sensors replaced (and new fuel tank due to recall), picked it up and drove it home. Parked in garage to find major smoke coming from under the hood. Looked under car and saw transmission fluid leaking, dripping onto the exhaust pipe causing the smoke. Drove it right back. Now I'm in a loaner car.
  2. I returned to the car this evening, code reader in hand. Got a P0720. Upon clearing the code I could actually hear the transmission "reset," a soft thunk. Car drove fine like nothing has happened. Regardless, drove it straight to the dealer, and plan on insuring they replace those sensors.
  3. Oh, no doubt I'm taking it to get it checked out. My main question now is how far is it safe to drive if it remains in the high gear/limp home mode?
  4. My 2008 MKX 81k miles is now experiencing the ODO DATA ERROR issue. Scouring the internet turns up the TSS and OSS being the likely problems, but this is the first thread I've found where replacing them did not help. So now I am wondering if in the event those are not the issues, how deep of a rabbit hole could be it figuring out the problem? Also, how far is it acceptable to drive in the "high gear" thing it currently seems to be in? I got off the road, into a parking lot and it has been sitting there overnight, but might have a go at limping it to the dealership about five miles away. If that's too far, there's an independant mechanic I've used before, only one block away.
