Why do you say "severe"? Right now I am at 5 clicks clockwise and it is shifting nearly flawlessly. A click appears to be about 1/6th of a turn.

Success! With a new SLT installed, I was able to adjust it just about 7 clicks in to get the 2-3 flare under control. The screw from the previous SLT was in the oil pan, and the spring and clip were still in the bore, so at least I did not FOD the tranny. Lowering the subframe in front really made t...

Scott from Rostra was right, he thought maybe the adjustment screw might fall out with that many counter clockwise turns. I looked in there, the entire adjustment screw and clip were GONE.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. I think I am missing something very fundamental: I am kind of stuck in the middle of a tranny swap gone bad. I bought a 2002 V70 2.4T FWD that had a bad AW55-50SN tranny, and I planned to move the good tranny from my wife's 2002 V70 2.3 T5, which had su...
