Hey Joseph- Did you do that yourself? Have you done the ABC fluid yet?

No, did not do the transmission myself. I had my antifreeze flushed out and replaced, and did have my ABC fluid flushed at 40K when I got the car. It needed an ABC Dampener and fluid had to be flushed. New fluid added, and new filter installed.

Thanks for the follow up!
