164L Auto with Odd shifting problem

[bjanesi@xxxxxxxx]

My friend Antonio (riso@domain.elided), with a ~70K 164L auto is
having an odd problem with his ZF.  Have any of you had a similar
problem?  Feel free to reply directly to Antonio.

transmission.

>(weird!!).  I'm hoping to find some other Alfa owner that has had same
