Finally got my car back!
 

I dropped my car off Aug 29 and finally got it back yesterday. At least a week was wasted by my mechanic having to deal with the dealership.

-= Parts =-
Complete major overhaul kit
Complete solenoid group
Trans fluid
Complete bearing kit
Bushing kit
Torque converter
Forward drum
Forward sprag
TCM

All for the low low price of $4600 :icon_sad:


Jaguar stated it takes 2-3 weeks to set the trans adapts but I still expected 1-2 shift to feel smoother than it does. I do have a 1 year unlimited mile warranty and a followup recommended in 1-2 weeks.

They also fixed my coolant leak and said I could bring it back on monday and they'll change my serpentine for me no charge.

Yikes.....

What was it doing?

Shifted very hard, when it did shift. First time it happened I thought someone rear-ended me, it was that harsh. It'd get stuck in 1st or 2nd unless you let off the gas just before it shifted. 5th could get stuck if you tried to smash the pedal on the highway.

Dealership wanted to just put in a new transmission, at $7k plus labor.
