Q: What does code P07A0 mean?

Transmission Friction Element G Slip Detected. P07A0 means the transmission control module has detected that friction element G is slipping more than its programmed calibration allows during an apply or release event. The computer compares input and output shaft speeds against the expected ratio for the commanded gear and flags the element when the slip exceeds a threshold for a set time.
