211,184 miles to be exact and it looked as clean and crack free as the new one we put on. Remember I said we should just put it back in and check it in another 200,000 miles?

0260N4,

Since you have only had the car for two weeks, I'd be willing to bet that the car is still getting used to your driving and your choice of gas compared to the previous owner. I'd try resetting the computer by leaving the battery disconnected for 12-24 hours. Downshifts are a factor of many things and I wouldn't jump to a bad tranny, yet.

By the way, I'm on my 12th tranny (11 rebuilds). Welcome to the club and enjoy this rare beast.

Doug
