The stored code was for the PCS (1811? I can't remember the number) I have heard that an external trans cooler will help keep the transmission cool enough to help with the problem. What are your thoughts about the extra cooler?
Thanks,

I have also changed my fluid and filter twice.

Both times I have been greeted with some hard shifting RIGHT AFTER I changed the fluid. After a while it has gone away.... both times.

I have 120k on the van and other than that the tranny has been perfect.

I think the tranny needs to be reflashed after a fluid change.
