I should note that I did eventually get mine, but I went around being pissed about the comany until I realized on my own to just pretend he said 5 months.

I'll say again what I've always said: the customers can deal with being told "hey, we'll make this right, but it's going to take 5 months." What bothers people is being told "You'll have it in 2...

Well, I got my replacement unit. Bummer that they went to two control boxes, and I'm going to have to get a longer teflon hose, but hopefully I'll have this in the car this weekend or next.

All I want from a DWUR is what I had in the old UTCIS-PT...only working.

Glad to hear about the safe return. Maybe I'm selfish, but I can't wait to be off the Leask unit. It's a very welcome backup, and Brian Leask is a very standup guy, don't get me wrong, but I just...

How's this for a headscratcher. Changed out the K1 piston/spring assembly, and now my 2-3 shift is good, but the 1-2 shift, which was amazing before, has slip now.

I talked to a tech btw, and in case anybody in the future comes across this thread, if that o-ring were leaking the symptom would be a slow leak of trans fluid.

Close. It does have a screw-like thing in the center that is used to adjust it, but timing of the shift is done by the bowden cable, not by the modulator. The modulator controls firmness (though I'm...

Auto trans modulator questions
