Tranny Flush and Filter

Flushed my old fluid and did a filter using all ford products from work. now my tranny is shuddering and slamming into gear at times it revs up and slips into gear. also it takes about 5 seconds to get into reverse. I'm pissed not sure whats going on. the tranny tech is going to take a look at it monday. any predictions would be great.

low fluid

Or the filter is not installed correctly. Maybe you unplugged something.

fluid is at the correct level. filter is in properly installed. nothing is unplugged. the job isn't hard at all. i did nothing wrong doing the job, its something going on inside the transmission.

Air stuck somewhere it shouldn't be? Just a guess but maybe fluid isn't getting to a vital spot
