[QUOTE="jarance, post: 485461, member: 21"] You still have some minute water trapped in the GB. The water when mixed with the ATF will caused your solenoid to malfunction. It is recommend that you do a complete flush for the GB and also the line to ATF cooler. Drain the GB and check for any water contamination. If there are some sign of water, change the ATF and also the filter. Remove all the solenoids and inspect it for any sign of dirt. There is also a fine mesh filter for the solenoids. Clean them if they are dirty. BTW, Changing the filter and cleaning the solenoid does not required the GB to be removed from the engine. [/QUOTE]
