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.

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?

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.

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

Replying to: amanwhocares (Nov 28, 2007 2:12 pm) 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! |

First Automatic I have a 2007 dodge 3500 4x4, 4 door with my first and I think my last automatic Trans. I have 24000 mile I have had it in the shop in AZ at 13858 replace modules and solenoid pressure sensor etc ,then in Michigan 17681 this time full rebuilt now at 24000 miles I’m back in Az and heading back to Dodge . This time I ask for a new tranny or maybe I should get the 08 with the 6 spd auto I hear that truck and tranny are the best. Any body had problem with their tranny? Any suggestions? I drove my 72 ¾ ton 4x4 , 20 years I paid $4089.00 for the truck
