Hard Shifting Tranmission

is it the CD4E tranny. maybe you just need to add a tranny cooler?
When you guys say reflash does that me reboot the computer?
What about having the tranny flushed and serviced. I know there are sometimes problems after flushing trannys that have a certain amount of miles on it, but in this case can it create a worse feel?
Reflash means to upload updates to the PCM.
 
I really wish they hadn't removed the cold markings , since it sure was handy to be able to get an accurate reading cold. I don't know if your aware , but quite a few newer vehicles did away with the transmission dip stick all together. The only way to check is by removing a plug on the transmission just like a manual . I guess manufactures thinking is many people caused more trouble than good using incorrect fluid , over filling and etc .
Just check the level hot/running like your suppose to and then when cold. It'll be much higher when cold and just make a mental note of the that level.
