Hi geordi,

Were your tires spinning in 2WD? If not, then it sounds like more of a torque converter behavior than a lack of traction.

No, the tires weren't spinning. I've only been able to make them break loose twice, and both times were around a turn under had acceleration. I don't think it has the power to do a burn out. I'm going to flog it a bit today to try to figure out exactly when it is making noises, and I'll try a standard burnout just to see if its possible.

I'm very happy to report that after putting about 50 miles on, I can't duplicate the shudder. I've given it my best shot.

Shifts are must more crisp and less noticeable. Before I had the work done, the shifts would take, I swear, a second or so to complete. I see the RPMs slowly drop after the shift. Now it's just a little "bump" and the shift is done. Much better!

I've not towed my trailer yet, and most likely won't be until track day season starts back up next spring.

When I got it home, I did noticed that the ATF was on the low side for a hot reading. It was reading down in the "cold" region, so I added a little less than half a quart, so it wasn't that much too low.

So far, so good. Now...where I'd put that info on extended warranties...

Yeah...I'm going to wait a while on it though. I want to make sure all the demons have been excorcised. Plus, being without a vehicle for over a week has sucked. I'm happy to be independent again and not bumming rides. When I got out of town for Christmas we'll be taking the wifes minivan, so I'll probably ship it off then.
