How to make the tranny "slip"

Hi everyone.
Does anyone have tranny slip problem before know in what condition the tranny tend to slip easier?
I have some tranny slip problem (2 to 3 gear) after the ATF flush at the dealer one month ago. It doesn't happen all the time but does exist. Today I let the dealer keep my car for diagnosis. However they could NOT duplicate the problem. (right, as i can imagine) So now I need to make the problem worse or find out how to make the tranny slip to show the dealer.
Anyone can help?

Mine tends to slip when it is cold out and the 2-3 shift. Once warm its ok. I am considering doing the vb mod. to see if that cures it.

just um wait till the car is warm.. my only gripe with the tranny is right after the 2-3 shift if i floor it, the tranny has no clue what to do. it will just lag down in thrid then a few seconds SECONDS later it will drop to second. PITA

I have the same issue ( with slip and the stoopid dealer)..the best way to reproduce the slip issue is by letting everything cool down ( overnight preferably)...start the car..let the engine warm up ( without driving) and then step on it and it will definetly slip between 2-3. Mine always does it when cold..once the tranny warms up..it is somewhat noticeable but dealer would always say that normal...so leave the car overnight at the dealer and do the above steps in the morning

I had a similar prob. but mine slipped in every gear. I took it back to the tranny shop after having it rebuilt and the TPS wasn't working correctly.

easy answer for your question... put your car in "N" Rev the car to 3.5k rpms and put it "D" a few times.. you are going to FU#K the transmission so bad that they will have to replace it. if they don't find out.....
