    Did you scan for codes (even if the light isn't on)?
    Do you have an aeroforce or scan tool to watch temps etc?

    Is the motor running funny at all? MAF/TPS has a lot to do with shifting.
    i have nothing, no way to scan or monitor a thing. engine runs like new..

    as far as trans maintenance, im not sure. i know that it's been shifting great and the fluid doesnt look/smell bad... just came out of no where.

    soo you've never changed the filter/fluid. Might be time to crawl under her and give her a tranny service. I'd toss one bottle of lucas stop slip or the lubegard stuff that most trans places like in with teh refill.

    If you want to see how ugly your fluid really is.. wipe it on a white cloth/paper towel. Red fluid doesn't look quite as clean/red when you do that.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    true. well i'll see if i can't get a filter/fluid change going on. i hope that fixes it too. im so not in the position to be biting off any repairs that large.
