Well I plugged in my OBDII reader for fun today, not really looking for anything other than to see when the ECU switches into open loop.
Anyways, I decided to check for codes while I was there. I had (and have) no CEL on. However it does have a code stored in there, P0705. From doing some reading symptoms of this are late or hard engagements into drive or reverse. I don't have any of these problems. The only time I get a stiffer shift out of park is when the car is parked on a hill. Otherwise the thing shifts pretty well, only other issue is when it's cold out, the shift into third is a little harsher. The transmission has 187k miles on it though, so it's not exactly new.
I cleared the code, and a few seconds later it came back. Cleared it again and sure enough, a few seconds it appeared back. Still with no CEL though.
What exactly is the cause of this code, and what do I need to get rid of it?
