Replying to: chrisinohio (Jul 18, 2009 5:54 pm) No, I have not figured it out yet. I have talked to several people and they don't think it it serious. But did not have the time to help. I may just get the trans rebuilt, that seems like what most people are after..."the money".
#1135 of 1286 95 ram 2500 diesel overdrive issues by jay1164 Jul 20, 2009 (9:20 pm)
A little background truck stole they popped the ignition used a screwdriver for 1 1/2 yrs starting it no problems. On way to work in morn. wld run fine but afternoon it wld start to drag a little at about 60-65 mph til u hit 70 before wld engage next few weeks speed dropped to 50-55 with the drag til u got a little faster then did fine for a bit then decided to drag longer before kicking in to OD until eventually if u were lucky it kicked in but only stayed in for 30 sec's or so if that. Lower gears no prob. Finally swapped out steering column no change when first done but next morning drove it and it decided it wanted to work again but not on the way home until about 10 mins from the house for some reason it started to work again did nothing different during the drive all hwyway miles. When not working turning the OD button off doesnt seem to change anything (i dont touch it if its working tho) ? is wld the TPS going bad or being bad cause this or some other kind of sensor or maybe a bad ground somewhere? Im lost i need places to start looking any help wld be great. Thanks

#1137 of 1286 2001 dodge 4x4 by dokkie Jul 24, 2009 (12:27 am)
Hi this is my problem. I have a 2001 dodge 1500 4x4 automatic trans. While driving it at times it seems like it is not shifting properly. the rpms will actually red line before it will shift and it seems like it is hesitating like the fuel is dirty (as the rpms jump all over the place in any gear except so far reverse). I have bought fuel conditioner and filled the tank and this seems to stop it for the drive home but the next time it goes for a trip seems to happen again. does anyone have any ideas at all? could it be fuel or (OH MY!!!!) the tranny? and where should i begin (tranny shops around here and there is only one a hr away only know the words YOU NEED A NEW TRANNY!!!) thank you in advance for any advice u may have.

Replying to: rustteen (Jul 27, 2009 5:12 pm) Could be a drive shaft problem. Check for bent driveshaft (did you "bottom out" on this trip ? Then check for missing weight (small metal tab welded on to balance drive shaft when manufactured). Lastly, if it is two piece shaft, check carrier (intermediate) bearing. bobwinner
#1140 of 1286 Re: 2001 Automatic 1500 Stuck in 2nd [mthomas14] by jarod82 Jul 29, 2009 (7:03 pm)
Replying to: mthomas14 (Jul 06, 2009 3:40 pm) I have the same problem, But do me a favor. put it in drive and take off and shift into 2nd and let it climb to about 3500 rpm and put it in neutral and right back into drive and see if it shifts too 3rd. if it does then u have a pressure problem in the valve body i was told. BUT your truck is like mine but i still drive mine and i just manually shift it into 3rd like i told you.
#1141 of 1286 96 dodge ram 1500 318 4x4 518 transmission by jarod82 Jul 29, 2009 (7:12 pm)
BEFORE : took off and shift to 2nd good and strong but when went into 3rd would raise rpm only 200 rpm before shift and shift to drive gear. KNOW: 1st hesitates and when it clunks then it will go. every so often on that. But when it goes its fine untill 3rd gear and i have to put it in neutral and back into drive with no reving it up and it shift fine into 3rd. and drive and overdrive is fine as well. push the overdrive button off and it shift out and back into OD. Just 3rd gear is the most problem.. I think its the OD Silinoid. or shift Silinoid. It doesnt slip at all. just shifting problem. SOME ONE PLEASE HELP.

#1142 of 1286 '99 Ram 1500 4x4 autotrans by reelgreaser Jul 31, 2009 (5:29 pm)
Truck ran fine this morning, went to leave work later that day and it felt like it was slipping a little bit when I first took off. Got on the on ramp and noticed it would not shift unless I let up on the gas a little, then I noticed the RPM's were running a little too high and realized my OD was not engaging, even when you push the OD button.Thought I smelled tranny fluid, so I pulled over checked fluid levels, they are fine. The check engine light came on, but no tranny lights are on. This truck is a '99 with 73,000 miles on it. Once you're moving it doesnt feel like it's slipping but it will not shift on it's own. It will manually shift fine. but no over drive at all! Replies to this message: reelgreaser (Jul 31, 2009 5:33 pm) reelgreaser (Jul 31, 2009 9:28 pm)

Replying to: reelgreaser (Jul 31, 2009 5:29 pm) I'm taking the truck in on Monday to have it looked at, when I (IF) get an answer from the mechanic I will post it. Hopefully I can help someone else out.   I have found alot of dodge tranny problems on the internet. I will be selling this one as soon as possible! This is a really nice truck to bad dodge won't help the mopar man!
