Hi BNaylor,

1st of all Thanks for your help. Here's an update on my experience. I dropped the pan and accumulator and found a broken 1-2 accumulator spring. I replaced it and also installed the ZZP shift kit with the recommended spacers. Also installed a new filter, pan gasket and Dextron VI. Things seemed great for a while. But now, I've noticed that the hard shifting will return if the car is driven enough to get hot. Any advice for me? Does the shift kit essentially override the PCS function? Is it possible that replacing the PCS might fix the problem or am I looking at something more? The 2001 Olds Intrigue has 70K miles and has never been driven hard.

Thanks again for your help.
