The dealer wanted $1000, I think I came out ahead. Fairly simple if you are patient and follow the procedure carefully, lets just hope this takes care of it for good.
I hope that fixes it for you. Good on the diy part and saving all the dough.
My 07 has been flawless on the tranny, but had to change a front hub bearing. I've got 85k(wife actually)and she loves it,but I'd just as soon drive my old 99 exploder and I think it's for the better visibility.
