Thank You, Brian Carlton....

was lurking on the EGR experiment and how is some cases it actually help the transmission....so encouraged, I bought 39 cents worth of new vaccum line and found a BB...did a temp plug and tightened up some vac connections, 10 minutes tops....took her (why are they female??) for a test run. WOW! I can hardly feel the shifts and this baby wants to run on out!

I was actually thinking the turbo may be inoperative, but was because the tranny was flaring so bad I had to feather the pedal. Not now! Shower down and she flows on down the road.

The dealership had estimated a $1400.00 transmission overhaul ("might be more after we get in there and see")! You fixed it, unsee, for 39 cents! Thanks for your expertise.

This is starting to get fun....
