Yes, I believe the transmission is the same from 1999 to 2005. The
transmission computers in the 2004 MODEL YEAR vehicles should already be
programmed to include this update.

 

But if it does shift from 3rd to 1st, and you don't come to a complete
stop, you will be accelerating while in 3rd gear, even if going 1 mph.
I have to com to a COMPLETE stop before it will downshift into 3rd
gear
