It started with an apparent downshift at 50 mph, rpm surge and engine braking. It seemd as though I was running in 2nd gear, although the lever was still pointed to "D". It was intermittant at first, occasionally upshifting to 3rd or D, but by the second day, all I have is 2nd gear. No noises, crunching of parts, squealing, tin can rattling. Just no high gears. Could it be a sensor of some sort, or a Vacuum line? Am I looking at a New ? At 90.000 miles? thanks for the help . . . |

Have you ever serviced the transmission? Check your fluid level when you truck is idling and cold in neutral (parking brake on). What does the fluid look like? I would suggest doing the filter and fluid change. Also, unless you enjoy aggravation, I would suggest letting someone else do it. It was no fun. If you decide to do this yourself, and need any questions answered, feel free to ask me. I just went through it a few weeks ago. Good luck. RS |
