| its a automatic it starts off in 3rd when its in drive. when i go from park down to 1st and run through it manually its fine like new but if i should go from drive to !st it starts out in 2nd. so another words when i get to a light as long as i go into park and then shift into 1st its ok, i just cant start it out in drive because it stays in third. | |
hi, not sure how to put this, but I have a 5.9l V8. My shift lever is loose, and I am having problems getting the truck into drive I need to at times go down to 2nd then find my way back up. Sometimes while driving i do not notice that I am not yet out of 2nd until I hit the highway and try to pick up speed. Then the engine reves up and I have to fiddle with the lever quickly going in Neut, and trying to get it to drop into gear. I also find my rpms going between 1 and 3 while driving and tapping the lever seems to knock it back down. I am going to the shop for inspection and want them to look at it for me. But would like a heads up of what to expect. I have no lights on. So I dont beleive there is a trans issue. I did have my trans repalced at 86,000 miles. it now has 123,000. Any idea as to how much getting possibly the gear shifter replaced could cost, and is this a labor intensefied job. Thanks ahead of time for any help received.

| Does anyone know what trans is in a 1999 B150 Van with an automatic 3.9 ? Is it the same as the one in a 2001 Ram 1500 with the same motor ? Please help. | |
| Hi guys. My 2001 Ram 1500 with a 3.9 automatic was shifting fine. One day I went to move it and now I only have reverse. Any ideas ? I have changed the filter and fluid with all Mopar parts. I don't know what else to do or try. Also I noticed that my shift lever no longer locks into place. | |
| 04 Ram 3500 dually with the 5.9 diesel and auto trans. Was coming home the other night, slowed down to go over some railroad tracks. When I went to accelerate I only had first. I was only about a mile from my house so I drove home and parked it. Let it set for a few days until I had time to look at it. Got in and the truck drove fine for about 5 minutes then went back to doing the same thing. I always have first and reverse. Both engage normally and pull fine. Have not noticed any slipping or other indicators of a problem in the past. That being said the trans has not had the easiest life. It has been too long since I changed the fluid, it does have an aftermarket fuel/ignition box for HP and it has seen it's share of full throttle pulls. I know this is a combo that is asking for problems but seeing the manner in which this one came about. I'm finding it hard to believe it is in need of a tear down. Don't know crap about auto transmissions. This is the first one I've ever had. And now probably won't ever have another one. Any info is appreciated. | |
