Re: hard shift when hot

yeah ive checked the fluid several times. its full now. changed filter, cleaned pan and magnet, filled it, then had it flushed. im down to the point that i might go and get a new valve body stick on it. it will be easy enough, and if it doesnt fix it well then there was a waste!

im kind of inbetween on the problem. since it does only happen when the temp reaches 200-220, im just kind of stuck. i was taking that it would be the torque converter, since my knowledge and others, have come up with the trans is heating up fast making coolant heat up and most likely cause is a torque converter acting up and overheating.
