I requested a transmission service (not fluid exchange only) at 84k miles which I was told would include replacement of the transmission pan and it would cost in the region of $1000. This was done at the dealer on Wednesday,
I don’t see a charge for the pan…
And… is it normal for the transmission to still shift rough 3 days later? I don’t think so. No issues before. I felt it the moment I left the dealership.
It’ll clunk selecting R when cold and hesitate while shifting into the next gear. It’s like it doesn’t quite know how to shift , slight hesitation and retards power while shifting so it feels like it’s slipping.
While cruising at 75 when shifting down to maintain speed it makes a loud clunk I can feel.

Just got under and took a pic… they did not replace it.IMG_1974.jpeg
I’m smelling oil as well after a long drive. It has a distinct smell.
 
I’m amazed that they would hand over a vehicle that shifts as it does.
It’s supposed to shift normal/better immediately after service, correct?
 
Definately looks like a flush/exchange, especially with the addition of the BG6600 "snake oil". Would not be a happy camper if they put that in mine.
