That sounds promising. Hopefully the transmission service did the trick

Hopefully the chains weren't just replaced by the mechanic on back of the shuddering issue in a hope that would fix it.

Nah I was getting them done anyway I should of done them 12months ago but needed to save up some money holden wanted $3000+ just for the chains my mechanic done them coils and plugs for $2900 which I thought was reasonable all genuine holden parts aswell tho we thought the plugs and coils were part of the problem
