Yes, indeed. For about 2 years now. I have slight reverse mostly, but on rare occasions the reverse is completely normal as if nothing is wrong. I did several searches and most point to B3 band, but I have yet to encounter any posts where someone's reverse is fully functional again as mine will sometimes be. I'm hesitant on a rebuild because, like the oe cat, I'm afraid aftermarket/rebuild will not last as long as original. I have not had any problem with any other gears and the little reverse loss is very well manageable. Not completely opposed to rebuild, just want to make sure its really necessary and not something simple that's causing the on again off again reverse issue. Car has 326,281 miles. I've had car since 05, with records and now I keep a very detailed record of everything from oil change dates and miles to replacing any serviceable component of the car and I can tell you that all fluids, filters, ignition, starting/charging, and suspension components were all done 6 months or less. Though transmission is still intermittent, I have still drained torque converter and pan, replaced filter and pan gasket as well, fluid was red when I changed it and no sediment in bottom of pan.
