RE: [T3] AT adjustment

["Gary Gamboa" <gary_gamboa@hotmail.com>]

<x-flowed>Could engine mounts/transmission mounts cause the same problem as rough 
shifting.

I am now suspecting my mounts because the problem is directly proportional 
to speed, the fatser I'm going when the shift occurs, the greater the clunk. 
If I am going 50 and then completely coast to a stop I hear practically no 
clunk at all.


Thank you,
