trans fluid in TCM. Would that make trans stick in 1st gear? Are the modules interchangeable without reprogramming to car? I purchased used part # a 030 545 23 32 SAME PART # that was in car

Most likely the used computer will work.

Make sure to replace the plastic coupling on the trans where the problem started.

And clean the wiring to the ECU.
