I agree, except I didn't do the software update that is a recall here in the US. My position was if it wasn't broke, other than wear items, don't fix it. My shifts are buttery smooth.

If the bridge seal and the four cylindrical seals above the valve body haven't been done, I would add those to the list. The solenoids too depending on how tight your budget is.

If you go with the ZF fluid, it's expensive. See my note about needing more than comes with most flush kits, if you remove the valve body (link in my earlier post).

It took quite a while to relearn the adaptions after resetting them with my Foxwell. I only did the reset the second time.
