1996 960 Check Engine Code PO740

My 960 runs fine, but makes an audible groaning sound when shifting into the high/overdrive gear. Maybe once every other month it will mis-shift and go into "limp" mode, the check engine light comes on, the up arrow on the dash flashes and the indicator lights by the shifter (E,S & W) ...

Common wisdom is that a) its' tie flame trap, b) it's the oil box, c) it's a leaking oil cap seal. Two mechanics said the oil box/flame trap need to be replaced at...
