Welcome to the "Second Transmission" club Pennetta. It's not that bad actually Mine was replaced at 1,600 miles. So far, so good.

Hopefully that fixes it. Mine is starting to act wierd, too. It sometime shifts very rough, like a bad manul shift. Sometimes its perfect. I am getting nervous that something will break soon....
