Manually shifting it to the L position on the shifter does eliminate the occasional squealing and shaking when starting off but does not seem to select a lower gear. It starts off at the same rate and shifts once when returning the shifter to the D position.
Here's what I suspect may be going on (but prefer not to think too hard about)
For some reason the transmission isn't able to actually shift into first gear and still starts off in 2nd. The transmission shop may(?) not have done the rebuild work correctly and isn't wanting to have to redo their work.
Their story is *It's a 2 speed*, so that I'll just go away.
I will continue to examine and readjust the shifter and kick-down linkages
and keep my fingers crossed.
