my tranny did that as well. when i put in new fluid after my shift kit install it seemed to stop. but then 3 days later i had major tranny problems. but i have heard that new fluid will help. i would reccomend you put in a performance valve body, aux tranny filter, aux tranny fluid cooler, and trans temp gauge for optimal tranny life. plus much firmer shifting to boot.

I don't think it's a big concern if it only happens once in a while, but take it to a dealer and see if it's writtne any codes related to the EPC solenoid. It's very very rare, but sometimes the converter clutch solenoid can stick just a little bit, if it's this you'll sometimes get an engine stall when you come to a complete stop. If you have any codes related to either the solenoid or the EPC I would try to get the dealer to replace the solenoid. It's an easy thing to fix, should take less than an hour.

Hope this helps,

G
