Smoother tranny now

Just went in for my one year service. They reprogrammed the tranny. Its much smoother now! Especially in 1st gear, and at lower speeds.

Yup, as my OP says especially in first gear at lower speeds. Sometimes accelerating from a stop. The fix was a computer reprogram. HC Boston.
