well im gonna hafta do this soon, cuz the last flush fill i did was with dex/merc III (non-synthetic), and unfortunately filled it to almost 4 quarts, and that 2-3 still gets me almost everytime under heavy load, even after the MGW STS!

Do it "sooner rather than later"--that is way too much fluid, keep in mind that each missed/grinding shift causes further damage to the synchronizers and gears.

well brought it to the dealer....they told me they could'nt duplicate de grinding I was having so they wont fix it(needs a good 30min drive and high rpms to make it grind but whatever). I said OK open up the tranny and ill pay for labor if nothings wrong in there. They still dont want to do it since they cant find any problems with it...lol..this is retarted.

Anyone know the reason for them not to open it up? I even gave them the autorization to open it and if nothings wrong I would pay all the labor....wtf

Because they don't want to get into a pissing match when you come back to pick it up and they hand you a bill for $2000, and tell you there was nothing wrong.

Drain it, then refill with 3.2qts of Mobil 1 ATF. If that doen't make it better then go to the next step...
