Early this year I had the transmission repaired by a local well respected shop. The repair went flawless and the transmission was filled with Redline synthetic gear oil, This was all done before I purchased the car so I have no baseline to judge. But in my opinion the transmission shifts very well EXCEPT when you first drive it in the morning. Shifting is slightly balky until a little heat is built up. I'm going to drive her for 5k or so and will switch to OEM fluid to see if there is a difference.
