Why don't you get the trans flushed? My buddy works @ Firestone and
they'll do a trans flush for ~$90. Gets all the bad fluid out. Worth
it in my opinion.

The first filter I put in it was plugged after just 6 miles, and then it wouldn't shift at all.  Up until then, it shifted great - no signs of trouble.  The filter was all gunked up - just like the one that was in it when I got the car.  My theory/hope was that it's junk working through the system - and maybe sediment in the cooler.  Rather than have the radiator boiled out (the radiator looks great), I bypassed the cooler and put in an auxilary cooler for 1/2 the price of boiling the radiator.  After another new filter went in, it shifted really nice in the driveway (once I got the cable adjusted).  But after about 15 minutes of running, no more shifting.  My
