Right-o! Power flush Mobil 1 ATF did it...

The two big things I really had a problem with when I purchased this Aero used was a rough idle (well, really a 'low' idle that made the car shake when stopped in gear) and rough/noisy shifting.
The low-ish idle was checked w/Tech2 and found to be in spec, so the tech opened the cam cover and tightened the timing chain. That helped some.
Next, I had the auto tranny power flushed at Firestone. Took 10 quarts of Mobil 1 full synthetic ATF to do it. Tranny is now quiet, sure-shifting and swift. Low-ish idle has improved again, and the rumble-in-your-pants feeling is now mostly gone.
A tune-up due in 10k miles should smooth out the rest. Ahhh, feels good.
BTW- those that feel full synthetic oils are a waste I think are way off. The full synth ATF has made a marked improvement in my transmissions opeation 100% of he time. I'm glad to know it's in there. 10 quarts costs $50, about what I'd pay for 1/2 of a good tire. Worth it.
