    2004 v6 transmission shifting hard, stuttering

    problem with my tranny fixed... I finally got my car fixed. I took it to another dealer and explained the problem. They had it for almost 2 weeks, but they ran some tests and actually found the problem to be a sticky solenoid. They replaced the pack and now the problem is gone... Of course...
