Downshifts are fine... always have been.

I did use my stethoscope on the vacuum pump and heard no odd noises or knocks.

I was set to do vac line testing this weekend, but just as suddenly as the harsh shifting appeared... it disappeared. My back being in a state of pain, I didn't do anything under the hood. In fact, I never even popped the hood... she just started shifting very normally on the drive home from work Friday night.
