Transmission code 3-2-3

I have recently bought a Volvo 850 93 model with 180K. After few weeks The Arrow indicator started to blink and the Code in A1 is 3-2-3 . I did a ATF Flush and reset the Error codes. The car was running well for about 50 kms and the Arrow indicator started to blink again.
The description for the code is Lock-up slips or is not engaged. Dealer told me the transmission has to be replaced. Do you guys had similar problem and is there any cheaper solution for it.

Thanks
Ris

I dont know for sure what the problem is...mine started doing this yesterday. It goes into reverse fine but when in drive, it seems like it is not getting it's power. If you figure it out, pls let me know. [email protected]

I also have the same problem on a 95 850 turbo wagon. I was also told by the dealer I need a new transmission. Does anyone know a good tranny shop? [email protected]
