I am planning on talking to them more this afternoon when I pick it up. We're going to drain and change the fluid tomorrow so they can examine it. They've got reports of fluid changes fixing the problem, unless there are metal shavings in there. Either way we'll know a little more about the urgency of the matter, and if changing the fluid fixes it, well that'll save me about $3750.

I'll report back.
