Thanks for the info! I'll take a look at it when the temperature comes up a bit. The car is pretty darned sweet and I'm looking forward to having the "big ride" - even bigger than the SD. If something relatively simple like this fixes I owe you guys a martini (I've switched from beer). The seller and I both were factoring in "worst case" of a transmission rebuild and I was able to get a real deal on the car.
