VE SSV PHANTOM
Gave the SS a bit of a boot full the other day and it ended up going into neutral while im doing 100km/h, then the check engine light came on. I was a bit worried but after shutting the car off for a minute all was back to normal. Then today it happened again while i was using the active select, i was in third gear and the tacho suddenly just went up to 6 grand and the car wouldn't move (stuck in neutral). Luckily i had a fault detector plugged into the ECU this time and it says error code "P2714 Pressure Control Solenoid D Performance or Stuck Off". Anyone else had this issue with their auto VE? Or can anyone tell me where the Pressure Control Solenoid is located? Im no mechenic and it sounds like it might be a bit difficult for a DIY...

Yeah likely only the trans needs a cleaning cycle, you can have it done through a tuner with EFIlive. How many km and when was the filter / fluid changed last?

Car has 170,000km on the clock but the transmission fluid and filter were changed at 150,000, i should mention that this issue actually did happen once before the fluids and filter were changed.
