Shift valve code was still there, so the advice of the mechanic is to have the valve body replaced. They believe (after consultation with some transmission experts) that the transmission itself is likely okay, and rebuilding the valve body will fix the problem...
Thanks for the details, as MOST do NOT take the time to get them, understand them, or Report Them.

When you report back, please indicate WHAT characteristics were noted: "car was still driving badly".
Thanks,
