You can start by changing the ATF but that only gives you some time before the trans goes kaput!

Take your car back to where you had the rebuild done immediately and have them check it out.

Hey thanks for the response back . I’m going to take the car back tomorrow to the shop . The car still shifts fine but I does jolt more frequently. What should I have my mechanic check for because he’s old and he does his jobs pretty fast and I’m scared he will mess it up more lol. Please respond back fast if you can thanks
