Thanks for the link

Does anyone have a part number / retailer to purchase the part for this job?

I have access to a lift and will try the job myself

OK - Installed the solenoid - passed emissions (yea) - and check engine light has returned after about 150 miles. I haven't run a check yet to identify the code, but any thoughts on where else the problem might be? Still seems to be skipping 3d gear
