to tell u the truth i just bought it i have no idea what gears, but it's weird cause when i step on the gas it fells like there's no gas
dont go WOT with OD on. it will kill the tranny. i leave OD off unless on the highway or at higher speeds.
do a full tune up if one wasnt done already. like stated above and check your air filter too
I go WOT all the time with OD on and my trans is fine; I think what hurts the AODE is when your WOT in 3rd gear and then try to go into OD without lifting.

OD is not a gear, it's a band (kevlar, I believe). As it wears out, your tranny will slip while in OD when you apply too much gas. Eventually, the OD band will not hold and OD will constantly slip; effectively "losing" OD.
When you go WOT while in OD, you are putting stress on the OD band until the tranny downshifts to 3rd. I would also presume you stress the OD band if you are at WOT and the tranny shifts into OD. I could not tell you how much stress, however.
I'm just glad I have a T5 now. One less thing to worry about.
I'd still kick this trans to the curb in a second for a T5
