hi wullaby...if you search by member id you can read all the tranny posts..its not that many but briefly hard 2 to 1 shift while slowing..just before coming to A complete stop feel several jerking sensations..and if i use the car for a few hours then i let it sit for a few hours then drive away it wont get out of first gear until the tranny warms up usually about a minute in hot weather and a little longer in cold weather..in the winter both situations get worse...recently had tranny totally reflashed situations got slightly better but still exist and know i occasionally get a slight rearend thump after i stop which i never had before..rob
