I have a '93 940 non-turbo with 300K+ miles. The transmission went out, and I replaced it with one from a '94 940 turbo. I replaced the transmission and the torque converter with the set from the donor 940. I also cleaned the filter and replaced all of the fluid with new fluid.

My 940 now has to reach higher RPMs before it will change to the next higher gear. It's fairly consistent in all gears. All gears work fine including OD, and the kickdown works fine. I've loosened the kickdown cable as much as possible, but the transmission still requires higher RPMs before it will change gears. I'm wondering if this is expected when a transmission from a turbo is installed in a non-turbo. I've double checked the fluid and it looks good. Thoughts?
