The valve body is what really needs to be cleaned during the service. My guess is that those people who've had trouble after a transmission service did not have the valve body serviced. Just merely draining, flushing, and filling the trans fluid won't clean out all those tiny passages in the valve body.
And there's little springs and check valves in there that wear out too. So a valve body service or replacement is essential. Otherwise, the trans behavior could get even worse.
Also, for those with the rear-end bang: check your MAF. If the MAF is not working properly, or there is an intake leak somewhere, you can get the same symptoms.
