Maybe I will have to go back to the dealer I bought it from, but here in New Mexico the next closest dealer not associated with the local dealer is 220 miles away, and the dealer I bought it from is 320 miles away. There's one in Texas 60 miles away though.
They still have some other work to do, so maybe they're just trying to get the differential work on separate tickets.
The shifting in general just doesn't feel right though. Even going into second feels like I'm having to force it. But, thanks for the tip. I'll give it a shot.
That right there ... no LSD additive put in ... THEY caused the clutch packs to fail IF ,,,, IF they drained the differential then refilled it (as one TSB calls to do) and did NOT put the LSD additive in.
Check ALL your work orders ... if this did indeed occur the your clutch packs are TOASTED. The only thing that they can do now is either replace them OR replace the differential.
