I'm gonna start off my giving the backstory just to help understand what the problem could be.
My buddy bought a 2005 1500 5.7 4x4 about 6 months ago. It has 160k on the clock. When we bought it the guy said the transmission been rebuilt a year ago. (the warranty expired a month after he bought the truck) He also said he had some parts on the transmission upgraded like torque converter can't really remember what else. The guy also sold the truck we a Diablo sport tuner. After I drove the truck for the first time I immediately told my buddy to take the tune out. (Didn't like the way it made the truck drive always felt like it shifted way to hard while getting into higher rpms) well he didn't take the tune out and now his transmission feels like it's slipping but only sometimes doesn't do it all the time. Also throwing a P0700 code. I realise this is a generic code. But has anyone had this code before. If so what fixed the code. Just trying to get ideas of what we could be dealing with. Besides the obvious transmission itself going out.
