Absolutely.... awesome service needs to be rewarded as it's becoming a rare thing. I think I'll throw in Timmies for the boys as well.

I think i might get it done maybe this weekend. 2-1 downshift clunk is completely gone with the flush but i still have the 5-6 jerk and the tranny has a hard time deciding which gear to stay in when climbing a hill which im thinking is software related. thanks for your input

anyone have any ideas about the HDC transmission fault issue? i have got it 3 times so far since the flush. doesnt afffect drivability but lowers the suspension. its very random too. i have replaced the brake light switch a while ago too.

The previous owner said they replaced the battery but im not too sure.it is around 35 degrees in the morning.would that make it weak? and it has rained a couple of days too.

I ask what codes cause mine had hdc that set a lot, with abs codes, ended up being bad connectors at the abs unit plug, a dealer tech friend fixed them in 10 minutes no more faults, its common enough he said there's a bulletin

Yours could be a similar issue

The female connectors stretch and make poor contact

I'd get HDC Faults at startup when my battery was low.
