Found that the transmision drives ok but there is a shudder on the 2-3 shift on light throttle. Codes did not return after first drive. Fluid level full but color looked ok fluid smelled burnt. Recommend pulling pan and valve body to bench test valve body and transmission. Pulled the pan and inspected, found some normal material in the transmission pan but nothing abnormal. Tested valve body and found that the switching valve is not holding vacuum. Should vacuum test between 15-18 InHg current test 0-1 InHg. Air tested transmission and found hydraulic side OK at this time but the burnt fluid smell more noticeable. Suspect internal transmission damage with a failed valve body Disassembled valve body and found the switch bore was not reamed correctly. Recommend transmission rebuild with valve body replacement.
