Question about AW70 Transmission.... 200 1990

Your tranny may not 'like' the brand of fluid that was installed. Believe it or not, a lot of trannys are 'sensitive' to the brand of fluid used ,because of the different amount and type of friction modifiers used, even when they all meet the Dex III spec. It can change the 'feel' of the shifts. The flush could have also busted loose some trash( espeicially in higher mileage units)that has now deposited where it does not belong. You could try a drain ( not a flush) and refill with a different brand and see if that solves it.
