whats up every one ... tranny problems again


well my tranny is going again!! this time is only has like 10k on the rebuild, and the aamco shop that rebuilt it the first time told me that they will not do it under warentee , it is 3 months past the warentee date..
the car only shifts hard and slips when it is cold if i drive the car for a like 5 minutes then it starts to shift like a caddy.???? i am not an expert on auto trannys but i do know kinda how they work and i belive that it is a sticky or malfunctioning valve body in side of the main case ?? does any one else know what i mean?? i just put some "sea salt" - is the brand , it is basically a tune up in a bottle , claims to smooth out shifting?? and it has a really solvent kind of smell to it i hope that this is able to clean the shit up!!

well if it cleans anything out, then you have to consider where it's going to transfer all the "crap" you clean out of that section of the tranny. It might be a good idea to do a tranny flush so that the "crap" comes out the tranny and doesn't ruin anything else.

lucas/trans tune might hold the car over so you can sell it to some sucker and get a 5 speed and never look back..
