OK this trans is fully computer controlled. when it messes up it will store a code in your computer. You need to run a self test. I dont have a link to a how to handy but if you use the search function off the main forum page you will find it search- self test. Post back what codes it has and more people will help you out. Till you do its all guess work and thats never good. I do thinks this is in the valve body though but again just a guess...
