I just bought a 2000 3.8 and the car is occasionally hesitating before "lurching" into gear. I read some similar cases at
Thank you Mark, I'll keep this in mind next time I take it back to the dealer Phobia
Hi Don, The car has 45,000 miles (72418 km) on it, the mechanic said no codes showed up so he couldn't find the problem. I bought the car at a Ford dealer and bought a Ford warrantee. Ford sent it out to a Chevy dealer for the service. Since the car didn't "act up" at the dealer they did nothing except charge me $90. I haven't looked at the color of the transmission fluid, I assumed the service people did that.
Thank you for your advice Phobia
