PhillyTL-S

30 days after they installed the kit, my tranny started to act weird in 2nd gear
I took it to the dealer for inspections, they checked it and told me that the fluids are Ok and everything looks fine and they have no idea what I am talking about (weird whistling noise, hard shifting from 2nd, jerking forward...) but for them it was normal.
So after I left the dealer 5 min. later the tranny stayed in 2nd and it was almost impossible to shift into 3rd or 4rt
I took it back, they tried again and told me that my tranny is going to
Today, one week later I pick up my car.
I like the shifting, smooooth....
Not sure if its true but they told me that they installed a brand new tranny (not a rebuild or something) and they also told that there was no problem with these new trannys.
This is what I got in the papers so maybe someone tell me what was done beside the tranny change

sounds like the typical 3rd gear clutch pack failure that we all have. ive had 3.

Ha, sounds like the normal replace trans, pcm and fuel pressure regulator.
The new pcm will actually change the shift points, you may notice, you may not.
