I have a 98 ram 1500 318 auto, the tranny is taking forever to shift into second, no slippage, just waits till about 3,500 rpm to shift, unless i let off the gas a little.all other gears seem just fine, any ideas??
thanks

Dodge 01 transmission over drive problem by zuhair4444

I have a dodge 1500 ram 5.4lit. While I was driving, the overdrive light came on. Moments later the transmission temp light came on also. I parked the car to cool it off, I made sure the O/D is not engaged and started driving again. Again short times later I hear something happen and I notice the O/D light is on again, followed by the “Trans Temp” light and of course I could smell the fluid burn. What shall I do please advice. please note the car stil drive nice.

Had the same problem happen to me just two days prior. Have you found out any thing yet. Had my truck looked at by a Cottmans trans place - they did get a code for a tranny problem - suggest that I take it a a garage and tell them there is a drivabilty issue. What now

I have a 1996 Dodge Ram 1500 that i bought a few months ago and the transmission is all ready having problems. i can put it trough all of the gears but it doesnt go past 2nd gear. it will stay in first for a long time and then if shift it down into 2nd then it will jump up but it wont go any farther. any guesses on whats wrong with it?

overdrive button issue 95 Ram 12val Cummins by carnut17

Can anyone tell me if the overdrive button on the dash is supposed to disable 4th gear; or is it just supposed to prevent torque converter lock up when it's in 4th gear. I find that not having 4th gear is a problem becuase im stuck in 3rd while towing which i find is too low for most situations. I am at about 2200rpm at 55mph, redline is 3000rpm thats to close for comfort for me. Is there any modifications available to prevent t/c lock up and still have a 4th gear.

On the non diesel models like mine, it disables 4th gear, however the redline is 5 grand instead of 3 i would guess that with the power of the diesel you would be able to use OD at highway speed.

Yes, that disables 4th gear and allow lock up in 3rd.

My 98 2500 is doing the same thing with the OD light then the tranny temp light. Has anyone came up with a solution yet?

Hello! I am looking at a 2000 Ram 1500 P/U with 94k miles on it, 5.9 motor. The guy says it has a rebuilt trans in it. How can I tell? Checking numbers or anything?
  Also, he says it has Tow Pkg. How can I tell if this is so?
 
Thanks!
