Frank, thanks for your advice and, please, keep it coming.

I would agree that there shouldn't be any thing wrong with the new tranny, which is really my problem. You say they shouldn't need to DL SW with the new tranny install, but the dealer humored me with the assurance that necessary SW DL were done and that it shifts just fine. I never said I had a problem with shifts, it was vibrations. This leaves me ?'ing integrity yet another time. Because of this and schedules, I havn't made the effort to take the car back yet.

I want to go back with as much knowledge as possible so I avoid charges for cleaning throttle bodies and such. So tell me if you know, when the tranny is replaced, is there a certain rotation that the engine/trans needs to be in to be properly in sych? I think the vibrations are most noticeable in 3rd, when the engine and tranny are spinning at a 1:1 ratio.

Also, please think of any other drivetrain componants that may cause acceleration vibrations due to wear. Remember I have 84,000 miles.

Thanks, again.
