Yeah, they're recommending replacing the clutch pack while they're in there cause there's likely damage to the installed unit thanks to the hard changes that the dodgy sensors have been making. It was intermittent and seemed to only really be on cold starts, so I just thought it was a "quirk" of these transmissions until it just dropped into Netural one day for a few seconds.
I'm guessing the clutch packs are worth a pretty penny, so your $2500 quote sounds about on the money of you weren't to do that part of the job.
