Default Level IV trans trouble

Had jason check the trans at the team chevy.
The check engine light said a solenoid problem.
Change those still no cure. The car still doesn't shift
into forth rpm's rev quite high. Coming out of first is a
delayed shift passes the 3000 rpm's. Jason said its something in the trans.
The worst part is I had the trans beefed up before I had any problems
because of the supercharger. The trans has about 4000 miles on it.
And has not been to the track at all, not once. Thats was pisses me off.
Hopefully when I talk to chuck we can straighten this out. He seemed very concerned about it. Told me to go by jason first.
Anyone in the Chicago area need repair work on there vette Jason at team
chevy now called Ogden chevy. Jason is the man.
:mad :confused:

Thanks for listening I'm just crabby! Jimmy O

Sorry to hear your problem :( My FLP Level IV is fine. Since this tranny runs on vaccum....could it maybe be some sort of tuning issue that is interfering with it's operation? Just a thought. Good luck.

JIMMY:

Take a deep breath brother, between CHUCK at FLP, JASON at OGDEN CHEVY and GEOFF at PTC, you and your baby are in great hands and i'm sure will get fixed in no time! :yesnod: HANG in there BROTHER as a bit of patience is needed in the high performanc C5 arena. As you know, i am a seasoned veteran when it comes to mega mods and headaches (especially with these finicky A4s)! :steering: :smash:
