2013 G37 Journey sedan in limp mode
Hello everyone, I'm the second owner of a 2013 G37 with 116,000 miles. I bought it and 2019 with 53,000 miles and it has been a fantastic car. I've maintained it carefully.
Last week it went into limp mode. I took it to my mechanic and here are his notes:
"PO720 - speed sensor circuit
Tech clear codes. Upon further inspection and testing fault code: P1721 vss circuit.
During road test and testing, transmission has slip on 3-4 shift as well. Due to fault P1721 transmission will need TCM/valve body, harness and output speed sensor replaced.
However, due to slippage on 3-4 shift, tech recommends rebuild or replace transmission. Recommend take to transmission shop for repair as the transmission is discontinued from the dealer and we are unable to locate a rebuilt unit."
Just wanted to get everyone's thoughts and opinions on next steps.

I'm reading on other threads that i should try cleaning the MAF sensors and throttle body. Based on the diagnostics so far, is that even worth trying?
