Whats up everyone this is my first time posting so here we go. I have a 09 2500 Mega Cab 4X4 with a 6.7 and the wonderful 68RFE. So a couple weeks ago I had a couple codes pop up 732 and a 733 both transmission codes. Started doing research and decided to first change fluid and filters. After that truck was doing better, not perfect, but I thought maybe it would work itself out. Well 1 week goes by and it is bad slipping in 2nd and 3rd have to baby it every time I drive her. Did more research and bought the updated solenoid pack, with the filter kit and the detent plate. Also got the governor pressure transducer, speed sensor kit, and the valve body upgrade kit. Figured might as well do everything I could without pulling out the trans before dropping her out. So yesterday had all the parts come in except the upgrade kit and I had to do an EGR clean and CCV change after only putting 30k since buyin from dealer that"s another story. Anyways so I figured I would put the sensors in and do the rest when the kit got here. After getting done with all services cleared all codes and fired her up BEAUIFUL purred like a kitty cat. Put her in reverse and right in thought WOW. Backed her up put her in drive WOW right in again. Took her for a drive and PERFECT, no slips nothing right through every gear.

Now here is the weird thing, it seems to shift hard. Maybe it is just me but it shifts harder than ever before. I"m not sure if it just right now or maybe the owner before put a shift kit in it. Just wondering if anyone else noticed this after they did the same work. Was also wondering if I put in the solenoid with the cam plate and the reprogramming kit if it might help. Maybe I'm just TRIPPIN and need someone else to tell me that. Thanks and any response would help.
 
Yeah ive been driving it and no more problems. Amazing how some sensors will mess up the whole gig. I did a lot of other maintenance at the same time and the truck has never ran better. Best mpg I've seen so far was 19.4, can't beat that for a full size truck. I love it.
