I'm thinking that a dealer repair is pretty much out of the question for this car. Dealer labor charges around here are $120 per hour or so I think. The value is only around $1000 when in "good" condition. Kind of doubt the dealer would be interested in attacking this kind of issue.

If it does turn out to be a mechanical problem caused by use of Dex III, I'll be quite mad since that is the recommended fluid in the owner's manual.

Haynes says the transmission ECU is under the console so that shouldn't be too hard to find.
Not sure what I'll do with it once I find it.
