Yep....it sounds like I got my answer, though. Basically don't worry about it until it happens all the time and then it's time for a rebuild. :suicide:

Pretty much so. But, this doesn't mean it's on it's way out. A sticky valve or solenoid, making it have a harsh shift is something altogether different than the constant hard shift from a broken hard part. It can give the same symptom but because it's not constant, it's only an intermittent problem. IF it was a broken hard part, then it would be more constant and then you drive it until it just breaks loose and one and done.

Thanks for the info @HotRodPC :waytogo: I'll just not worry about it, then, with it being so intermittent if there's nothing I can do about it anyway :) I even tried to make it happen today and I couldn't lol
