Considering that, wouldn't I just be better off waiting for the transmission to fail before doing anything? If I let the car warm up for 10 seconds and give the tranny a second before giving it gas after shifting into drive, I don't notice the problem. So that seems like an awful lot of money to spend when the car still drives fine. (you're right I won't be doing this myself)

Am I missing something?
