I would change out all the solenoid o-rings, each solenoid has two o-ring's as these o-rings will be disturbed when the conductor plate is replaced, but you may have to go aftermarket with those. Clean out the filters on the two regulating solenoids, and swap out upper shift solenoids with the lower ones.

Here is cheaper source for the fluid.

Best of luck,

I ordered 20 liters of FUCHS fluid. I'll just use as much as it takes and sell the rest.
I've read a lot of different opinion about the ATF and, I'm already saving money by not buying it from the dealer, so i'll just go with FUCHS.
May be next time i'll try Shell.

I've read about swapping the lower solenoids with the upper ones.
Do you know what the resistance should be ? I know you can measure and see if it's within acceptable range.
Also, where do i get the seals for the solenoids from ?
