Very easy fix - sleeves/gasket, shift solenoids, problem will be solved. Very DIY capable, and this video shows exactly how to do it:

not sure if I should just hit reply to thread or to “quote” in order to reply to someone. But anyway, thank you so friggen much man!!
Edit: You won't wanna over-torque/strip threads when doing this, so definitely be sure to torque bolts to spec too. Pretty sure the video covers what the torque specs are, otherwise Googling "6HP21 torque specs" should do the trick.

I personally used the ZF6 fluid for mine...SInce its a ZF 6 speed transmission. FCP Euro will help you narrow it down and they have great kits.

Just wanted to follow up and see if you got it done and if this solved your issues.It did for mine. I did the metatronic solinoids as well. Its like a new transmission.
