 Subject: transmission hangs up in 2nd
IP: Logged
Message:
When I'm on the highway or going about 50-60 and I hit the gas and downshift, it gets stuck in that gear at high RPM for a few seconds after I let off the gas. I thought the cause was that I adjusted the TV cable a while ago, but I set it back the way it was and this still happens. It shifts fine under normal driving anyway.

Well I played with the tv cable a little more and it's still happening. The way it feels seems like I have the tv cable set too tight, because that would mean I have to let off the gas more for it to upshift, right? But it happens even when I take my foot off the pedal, and I have the cable set perfectly now. If I'm having tranny problems already I'm gonna have a heart attack. Could this happen if my tranny fluid is low? I checked it today, but my truck was warmed up and I couldn't make out the line. I would guess it seemed ok though.

I was wondering about that tv valve. It feels like it's returning to idle position a little slow when I let go of it, but I don't remember how it felt before this started happening. If that's not it I'll check into that ps sensor, I had no idea about that. Thanks.

The throttle valve is closing fine, so it must be the sensors... do you think a faulty pressure sensor could have anything to do with my rpm dropping when I shift to reverse? I had the IAC and throttle body cleaned pretty well and I still get that annoying thud and sputter when I shift to R.

I brought my truck to the shop yesterday and told them about the pressure sensor and all. They found a faulty tps and 02 sensor and replaced them, but they didn't find any trouble with anything in the tranny, but I think they just did a scan for codes. The truck's driving much better now overall, but it still sticks when I downshift and hunts for gears at highway speed. Should there be a code coming up for the pressure sensor and solenoid or should I ask them to physically inspect them?

I was just looking at shift kits. If I got one installed, would it clear up the problem without having to replace the solenoid, if they maybe cleaned up the area when it was opened up?

If the rpm drops in rev there is a good chance
your TCC valve is acting up engauging the lockup
sonnax replacement 22771A-01
Very posible the presure valve also
sonnax replacement will fix that
