So, when the fluid gets hot it shifts hard or is it slow to shift? Big difference. The ATF has probably never been flushed, it is not a dealer maintenance item. You could gamble and hope that a software update and flush fixes it.

Most likely, it will get worse and not better. Finding an 05 in a junk yard does not guarantee anything. Then you will have spent good money on a tranny plus about 8 hours of labor to replace it. Is it worth it?
