I guess it is the way it should work.[:I]

It feels like the TCM is always working overtime playing with all those shifts and locks....[]

Has any of you felt the car a little rough when shifting at slow speed??

I can feel it kicking forward when it shifts... like an old chevy or ford..

I like feeling that kick.. It makes me feel like there is a lot of power under the hood, but I just want to make sure that this is the way it should work...

My GT does a hard shift between 1st & 2nd gear (sometimes almost jarring) and does that leeeeeetttttt'sssss taaaakkkkkeee a whhhhiilllleee to lock in gear shifts between 2, 3 & 4. I sometimes worry my torque converter may not be 100%.
