Today it tried to shift from 2nd to 8th and the wrench light came on. Bought it December 9th at a subaru dealership and notified them about issues December 11th

I had our transmission oil and filter changed last week (72,000 miles). Dealership billed me for 7 quarts of QULV oil, and replaced screen assembly. I was billed for 1hr of labor plus the oil+screen.

I also had them flush the coolant while they were at it.

Looks like they didn't replace all 14 quarts of A/T oil, but who knows. It's a local Lincoln dealer so I figured if they did it according to their manual, it is what it is. At least if I have any transmission issues I have easy proof that the service was done by a qualified mechanic.

Transmission has been shifting erratically over the past few weeks, delayed shifts, high RPM shifts, and harsh shifts. No CEL (yet), so I'll just keep driving it until it comes on.

Did it improve after the fluid change??
