Turns out I just needed a tranny flush. I was meaning to do it... I just paid them to do a complete flush instead. Lets see if I still get the jerking. If so going to have it look at again, wont be getting the car back till Tuesday.

Did the flush take care of the problem?

Totaly fix it. No jerking like befor and shifting was smooth. Cost me $265 at the dealer for the flush. I think it was 14 or 16 qt. You can do it yourself there is a DIY sticky on it.

PS: It was money well spend because while doing the change they found my waterpump leaking and replace that under warranty. My advisor offer me a sweet deal to have my timing belt, tension, and alternator belt done. All I had to do was pay for parts. Labor and seal were cover under warrant since it had to be done anyway. Coast for flush and parts only $469.

Only good and no harm if you do it. But whatever float your boat. Some people do their first flush when they are getting their trann fix/replace.
