You'll get better feedback if you click here and repost your question again in the C6 section.

If you just bought an auto C6 (like I did 2 years ago) take it to a transmission shop (not a dealer) for a trans oil and filter change. Should cost about $250. That will make it run as smooth as possible. Worked for me.

Previous owners tend to forget about trans oil changes.

Unfortunately My father bought the Mercury Montego MX for us four kids to drive when we were teenagers. Him and his friends would buy junk cars and “try” to build one that ran. Needless to say I rode my bike a lot. I am not sure what the MX stood for on the car but I did race Motocross and that’s the abbreviation fo motocross.
