#51 of 1286 1995 Dodge Ram (transmission problem) by mtherrien Jan 20, 2007 (10:36 am)
I have a 1995 Dodge Ram 2500 series pickup. 4x4. Auto trans. 86k miles. Shifting problem: Code #34 Symptoms: Usually shifts from 1st to 2nd o.k. rpm can reach 3500 before it will shift into 3rd. 4th and o.d. shift normally.(this is an intermittent problem). Sometime will not shift out of first gear until rpm's are very high. If I use the accelerator gently, it will shift correctly most of the time. If I press down hard on the accelerator, such as shifting into passing gear, it seems to start the shifting problems I just explained. Next time I start the truck it will shift through all gears perfectly. Code #34 still lit. I don't think it's the transmission that's the problem. I get no slippage and when operating normally, it shifts perfectly. Could it be a sensor? Thanks; Jake...   I changed the transmission filter and fluid. I also replaced the speed control on the transmission.

I just had to have my 1500 5.9 Quad, 4X4, 61K on the odemeter towed to the dealer for the third time because of the transmission. First time was within the first 12 mos. and less the 10K on it, second time last June when just the reverse went out at 59K, and today when it would not go higher than 1st gear and then would slip out and no reverse. Thank god for the Extended warranty at only $100 a pop to me. Does anyone know if this problem could be caused by the additional weight with oversized Mudslides being just too much for the factory transmission to pull? This V8 has less power going for it than my 99 Ford Escort!Starting to feel that my beautiful truck is just a piece of junk.

#56 of 1286 96 2500 ram Drive problem??? by rammit Feb 01, 2007 (8:23 pm)
I have a 96 2500 Ram and when I put it in Drive it seems to start in 3 or 4 gear. When I put it in to 1st gear it has no problem going into it then 2nd its still fine. For some reason when I put it into Drive it starts out real slow then reaches 60 with no problem but it never shifts. Also when I bought it the guy I got it from said he had the tranny replaced. Any help I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance Replies to this message: 526hemi (Feb 28, 2007 8:18 pm)

I had a 94 Dodge transmission flushed and thinking it would remove the old fluid out of torque conv. and would not harm anything else and 6 months later transmission down. Now afraid to do a flush on my 2000 5.9 4x4. Any advice.

Replying to: ddually (Oct 26, 2006 8:43 am) Wondering if you found your Overdrive transmission problem. I have a 2001 dodge ram and paid a trans guy to fix my No Overdrive problem. 400 dollars later, still no Overdrive...gears 1,2,3 are fine.

Replying to: nws683 (Jan 28, 2007 2:25 pm) well i was taking it to get it flushed at a shop that is 10 miles from my house and all of a sudden it lost 1st and 2nd all together. now all it has is reverse. i beleive that it is going to take more than a flush to fix it now. i have heard that the bands in the tranny might be worn. any ideas on whats wrong with it now? thanks Replies to this message: jmc5 (Feb 06, 2007 10:54 am)

Replying to: dodgeman96 (Feb 06, 2007 8:47 am) I heard flushing does not completely clean out the trans...in other words the filter with the trans will not be replaced. Be careful with trans shops..they quote you a price, but continue charging. Rams are known for sensors going bad...keep an eye on that also.....I'm not a mechanic...just a consumer that still hasn't found an answer for my no overdrive in trans problem....1,2,3 gears are fine.. but no overdrive...
