Just looking for advice-

Previous post mentions me driving home with my drive shaft in the backseat, removed by LR Asheville due to a shot U joint-

Was told to expect multiple unusual noises and scary looking lights on the dash. This may be related but-

Going up very slight rolling hill roads (most noticeable)pressing accelerator down I get a little hiccup or halting feeling, does not seem to be engine, revs free and strong, almost like the transmission is bogging or something. Multiple little 'hiccups'.

Any else ever experience?

Thanks again-

Jeff

well i wouldn't do anything till you get it fixed and then see if it does this , but it cuts out alittle then picks back up like someone cut the gas off just for a second , if that is the case, then after your reinstall if it still does this it could be the vss

Well, do not forget that when you going uphill your missing front shaft acted as free spinning wheels, while rear ones got problems with rotation. So following normal logic free spinning stuff was getting more power, (unless you had CDL locked), so odd hiccups would be there...

Just my theory :-)

Not sure what it has to do with your drive shaft, but it sure sounds like the vehicle speed sensor going south.
