Wow - the same thing happened to me and it cost me $2300 to have the thing rebuilt. Lucky you! How has it been? Also, do you tow with it?

What kind of sound did you hear when you stopped? If the tranny shifts fine and the fluid checks level then I wouldn't worry about it much. If it doesn't see much heavy driving then it will never blow out the excess fluid until it does. That's probably what happened.
