basically, i think Groober, just to reconfirm, its shifting fine in my opinion.
I noticed that you're in Ontario, how cold was it this morning? It was 32 degree F (0 degress Celcius) in NJ, this morning..and it also shifted at 35mph.

Took it the Benchmark Transmission place and drove it with one of their transmission guys. My fears were unfounded. You guys were right about the slight warm up period. False alarm.
