Did they fill the T/C itself before they installed it? BTW my tune was just fine after the T/C install. No changes were made to the tranny tune. You might try returning to the stock tune or whatever tune you were running before the install and give it another go. If that doesn't cure the problem I'd call TCI and ask for Kevin Winstead. He's the T/C guru there for these trannys. Good luck. This is a problem I have never heard of until now. It's probably something simple.

Your TC could be bad, not installed correctly, or your tune for the Trans. DON'T drive your car till you get it fix or your going to end up having to rebuild your trans.
