    Thanks guys!! Yeah.. I took a bit of a road trip this afternoon and no problem with any slippage. Actually seemed to shift better, but could just be my imagination.. ;0)

    Now I gotta figure out why I can't move the shifter from 3rd into 2nd or 1st. I suspect the button on the shifter isn't engaging, since it's not required for a shift from D to 3rd (according to the manual), but is required for shifting into 2nd or 1st.

    Btw, I find it interesting that both of the tranny shops I talked to about substituting a non-Vehicross tranny told me that because the shaft was shorter, it would require major modification to bolt one on to a VX.

    Are all Tranny mechanics morally challenged??... ;0)

    I don't know about this "flush", but if you open your tranny and burnt chocolate comes out and you decide NOT to change the fluid/filter at that point, regardless of history, I think you are making a mistake.

    Bad fluid is bad fluid.
