#287 of 1274 1991 Dodge ram tranny problem by gkey Nov 24, 2007 (6:26 am)
I was driving down the road and the trans. just stopped pulling. I shut the truck down for about 5 minutes and it started pulling again for about 10 minutes or so. Same thing over and over. Is it the fluid and filter or something major?

Replying to: joemc1 (Nov 24, 2007 1:27 pm) Do you have any idea how long it could be before I start having some serious issues?

#290 of 1274 Tranny 1st gear redlines-no 2nd shift--intermittent event by ram2500 Nov 26, 2007 (11:03 pm)
1999 5.9 diesel 2 WD quad cab with 140k automatic....redlines first gear and will not shift until throttle is released for a couple of seconds...then everything is fine...shifts to 2nd, 3rd, 4th and OD. This will continue 5 out of 6 times after a stop. Does not matter if engine is cold or normal temp...could be 40F or 80F outside temp. Tranny has been maintained with filter/fluid changes every 30 to 40K miles. New VSS with no change. Any ideas as I'm getting very frustrated.

#291 of 1274 transmission by qd1016 Nov 27, 2007 (6:54 pm)
I have a dodge 2001 ram, and the rpms were racing from 2000 to 3000 at various speeds. I changed the front gear lube this morning and couldn't find any problems with the fluid. there is now a humming sound and the transmission seems to be slipping in reverse and forward. I checked the fluid and does not seemed to be burned? could this be a sensor? any advice? Replies to this message: rammmo (Dec 07, 2007 11:23 am)
#292 of 1274 94 Ram 1500 Trans Problem by amanwhocares Nov 28, 2007 (2:12 pm)
Since I bought the truck with 134000 miles it has had a upshift problem at about 35- 40 Mph. Either second to third or first to second. I was told the trans is a "46H".   For the most part it stops when the system warms up but it seems to be now slightly worse with colder weather or the passage of time.   Also the truck acts like it is fuel starved at times and wont go over 50 with backfire sounds from the engine. Some shudder too. After I stop and but more gas it seems to stop. Over all it does this only occasionally. I plan to inspect the fuel pump to see if ti has ever been replaced. I mention this all here only to add to the possibilities of trans problem.

#293 of 1274 2000 Ram 1500 w/5.9 95,000 miles won't shift by pdrconst Nov 29, 2007 (12:54 am)
One cad started rattling. Shortly thereafter the check engine light came on and the auto trans instantly started having long delays in shifting. It acted like a good shift kit had been put in it. Took it to the trans shop, they thought it ran great but noticed a little bubbling of fluid on the dipstick. Also noted the fluid was clean. Although I knew I had been neglectful of changing it and the filter. Shifting continued to get farther apart, now it is stuck in first gear. Does anyone know if there is a relation to the catalytic converter not functioning right, the computer knowing it and effecting the transmission. There was no apparent loss of power or slipage. Decided to change fluid and filter. Parts man handed me fluid called Dex/Merc. Now hesitates and slips going into first. Still doesn't shift, HELP Replies to this message: titanium29 (Nov 29, 2007 8:21 am) is72 (Oct 12, 2009 4:06 pm)

Replying to: pdrconst (Nov 29, 2007 12:54 am) Not sure if it directly goes to your immediate problem, but if you put Dex/Merc in your tranny instead of Mopar +3/+4 you will likely be buying a new tranny soon. I'd recommend a drain/refill with Mopar with haste!
#295 of 1274 Re: 94 Ram 1500 Trans Problem [amanwhocares] by rambo57 Nov 29, 2007 (2:01 pm)
Replying to: amanwhocares (Nov 28, 2007 2:12 pm) I recently had the speed control sensor and throttle control sensor replaced on my 1500, which has helped some but not totally eliminated the problem. My check engine light finally came on a year after they told me I needed a new transmission which provided them with a code related to the repairs.   After being told I needed a new transmission a year ago I drove the truck home and it shifted fine and also shifted fine the next day. I called the shop and told them to hold off on ordering a tranny. I proceeded to drive the truck without problem for about 6 months (made me think it was electrical). The problem returned and actually pointed them to a couple different sensors. I've also heard that there is a bell crank sensor that can cause similar problems.   Hope this helps some and good luck!
