I really wish I had those details. I have maintenance records up to about 25,000 miles and that's it. The last 500 were me, leaving a large gap.
I'm going to replace the gauge (and sensor if that doesn't do it) next weekend, along with oil and coolant flush. I'm hoping I may have just pushed it a little bit too far.
I'll schedule an appointment somewhere to get the transmission worked on, that's one thing I am not familiar with at all (this is actually my first vehicle with an automatic tranny). I guess I realized I'd rather pay a bit now to have some work done preemptively than wait for it to outright fail.. was just hoping to narrow down what could have happened that would have made it slip with appropriate fluid (that looks clean)... yet work just moments later.
