That's good then. No slipping or anything, right? How about that whining noise?

no its awesome, so freaking smooth OMG. Usually it jerks so bad when the car shifts late but it was smooth. downshifting in triptonic is smooth and i have so much more get up and go. But i still think it needs more breaking in! have you spoken with Amit?

Meh. I've heard some ppl swear that it's bad to do it with high mileage because you risk the tranny failing or slipping right away, either because the new fluid acts like a detergent and can knock sludge free which can clog a line and starve the tranny for oil, or because things are worn to a point that the oil/crap mixture is the only thing keeping the friction plates working .

Ah, ok. That's the same change I noticed after I changed my fluid.

Haven't talked to Amit lately.

Hope it works out. And if it doesn't, manual swap.
