Thanks Rambit, I've seen a lot of your posts over the last few months and they are always a huge help. This one keeps the streak alive. I have a buddy of my brother's that is the tech working on the car. He says he did it right but I'll put this in front of him just in case. I just want the thing running like it did when I bought it. I drove this car numerous times over the last two years and it always ran tip top. My friend that sold it to me is really feeling bad that I got 2000 miles in it before problems cropped up.
Bund: I get the "Drone" between 55 and 58mph but it gets progressively worse and vibrates the rear view mirror enough that you can't look into it. The "shudder" was there before they rebuilt the trans and got the water out. They changed the torque converter and valve body when they did it but I'm not a "rebuilt" fan, I prefer a "remanufactured" trans to OEM tolerances which is what I'm haggling over right now. My beef is that the "drone" was not even there until 65000 miles. If its a characteristic of the MDS/Trans interaction then it should have been there way earlier. Get the transmission fluid checked by the dealer because they found the water right away and rebuilt the trans within a day. This may have been because I knew the tech but it shouldn't take a huge amount of time to see if you have water in there.
