I scanned my car a few weeks ago, no codes at all. I'll do some other monitoring...things..soon.

I had some not so nice chuggle with mine when it got good and hot.. It was bad after a lot of highway driving then getting into traffic( roadwork )... OD was not so nice when the TCC came into play.. After the cooler I have not had any chuggle or anything of the sort to complain about... But I don't think my caser is the same as yours..

If you were going uphill at 55mph and you applied throttle, not enough for a downshift to 3rd but close, is this the point when you see the slip or notice the variation on the Tach?

I agree...unless you have a '97 non-supercharged Bonneville. It felt exactly like a low RPM/high load ignition miss. Mine wasn't. My coils checked out, and I had new plugs and wires (which I also ohmed out). Woulda been a head scratcher without that TSB.
