Well. Finally got almost ALL the bugs worked outta the tranny. TUrned out that the whole problem since the beginning was a kinked cooling line. Fried everything inside I suppose. Found it yesterday, had known it was always there just didnt know it was a tranny cooling line. The shop I got my tranny replaced and whatever at gave me a free cooler up front and they used those lines. For what reason I dunno. Anyway, i took it back yesterday and had em replace all the lines with full rubber lines. They did it, and it improved my driving greatly. Before when coming to a stop, the tranny would slam into gear, lacking fluid I assume. Now it stops fairly smooth.

PS - moral of the story, check your cooling lines;). btw my car is awesome now on the interstate with that cooler up front}(

Glad to hear its all working now joe :) . I felt a difference when I added the front cooler the tranny seemed to shift much smoother. Now just add in a remote filter before some little piece of metal starts this whole story over again ;-) .

"just add in a remote filter"

damn ^^^^ thats a good idea. That and a fluid temp guage are on my list. I bet if i bought the guage the mechanic would install it for free. They've been really good with helping out so far.

sweet news joe!

where do you have the filter mounted? do you have some pics? ive got a filter sitting in my room, but i have noooo room anywhere to put it.

Mine is on my battery tray. Copy and paste for a bigger image.



If you get the remote filter kit Summit makes, there is a perfect spot for the tranny temp. sensor in the mount itself. No modifications required. Here is another pic. The sensor is in the middle.

I mounted mine where the stock airbox was but with a turbo that placement might be hard.

P.S. You guys notice that we are like the only people that really ever post in this section consistently.

yea, were some of the few who actually work on our a/t.

do you have those pics i asked for in that email dirt?

let me know whats up.

Yeah Ill take some pics tomorrow when I get off work and email them to ya.

I dont have that filter yet, mounted the cooler up front in frunta the condenser. works really well on the interstate:thumbsup . cant wait to get a guage. just dont wanna dish out a ton of cash...

If your interested I have an autometer silver face silver bezel ( ultralite) gauge with a brand new probe. Just went with all Apex'i gauges. make an offer.
