Default tranny problem/went to dealership/got car back/SLOWWWWWWW

So i took my car into Las Vegas Acura to get my 1 to 2nd tranny grinding problem checked out....little to my suprise they "couldnt find any problem with it."

Bullshit they are just trying to get out of fixing it AND what REALLY gets me, is since i got my car back which was yesterday....it feels 100000 times slower than it used to be. When its cold in the morning and i first start the car it usually SCREAMS...now when its cold it feels like i have the ebrake on and its barely moving. Feels really laggy. Did they do something to slow the car down to prevent the tranny problem from happening or getting any worse? I read somewhere that somebody else had this same problem. Got their car back and it was noticeably slower.

they might have put really thick viscosity tranny fluid in it to hide the grinding noise. That fluid creates parasitic drag on the drive train. Just a theory.
