Id clear the error code by removing the negative battery termial for a minute or two.Then recheck them to make sure you are only getting code 12 and that it cleared properly,then after driving for a hour or so,recheck the error codes again to see if it has returned,if it has,this confirms theres a problem somewhere.(sometimes, if your lucky, error codes can just set from a "one off glitch" ).
The gregorys says that possible problems that could cause error code 76 to set, could be-blocked injectors,faulty spark plugs, or leaking exhaust or inlet maifolds on one side of the engine.I know that faulty oxygen sensors can also cause this code to set,they will also cause it to use more fuel than it should.If the oxygen sensors have done more than 100,000 k's,they should be renewed.I doubt this code will have anything to do with the transmission slipping problem but it still needs to be fixed at some point if you want it running right..
