[QUOTE="MacGuyver, post: 441477, member: 18877"] Ugg, transmission problems are no fun. Dug a bit and of course JK trans cooling is much more complicated than stuff I've dealt with. My 2009 (same engine etc as yours) is a manual, that comes with it's own quirks. Check the transmission fluid level is my first suggestion. Low or dirty fluid is big cause of a transmission not shifting properly. For the prices you paid, I would hope they did a flush, and triple checked the level, but possibly not. Kinda annoying the way this site breaks every video into 30 second chunks, but it has good info and it is for the 3.8 engine.
