Vr fault codes\warining light, help plzzz

Ok fri headin up to sydney traveling at 105kph, just crusin light rain
warning light comes on, care feels fine thow, no loss of power nonthing at all i could pick up.

stop at next servo.
check all- everythin is all good
start again, light gone....drive till today roughly a good 1000ks

comes on again doin bout 105ks again, this time the car did feel a bit funny it was as if it wasnt in the 4th drive gear liek it was havin a bit of trouble(slipping maybe), so i flick the stick back to 3 then back to D...alls good then...but light still on.
get to work, turn off, re start light off.

drive home - no enigne light

check the codes
i got these

Code 33 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (MAP) high voltage
Code 36 - Vacuum Leak
86 - no description of a code with this number
86 - no description of a code with this number
Code 12 - System Pass (OK)


now code 36 is fair enough i know about this... the 86 code isnt listed so i went back and checked the codes and im sure its sayin 86! but its hard to keep up with it all so maybe its

Code 68 - Transmission Component Slipping - Auto Transmission Only

wich explains why it felt like it actually did this for a bit.

so any ideas wot i should do next, take it to tthe merchanic i spose?


Cars is always serviced and i reset the computer botu 1mnth ago and all was sweet. all oils are good and new!

thanks for ur time

another problem it could be is TPS but dont hold me to that!

Sounds like you've dropped vaccume somewhere, check that out first. with 86 i'd be saying it is tranny siomehow, all the codes around 86 are refering to the tranny. Could also be a bogus code, eg "Automatic tampon remover signal voltage high" :D the computer is made for a wide variety of applications so that code may not be applicable for your car. Fix the Vaccume and go from there.
