Default Bad Shifting
My truck is a diesel and my shifting is very bad between 45mph - 50mph. All of my fluids are great and change and new. It will shift high then low then just go back and forth. What's wrong?

do the diesels have a lock-up converter? Lock-up normally would occur between 45 and 50, could be not going into lock-up, or not holding? Do you have any codes?

Test the tps. It may be doing the same thing the gas trucks do....

Wouldn't the TPS be basically the same if it were gas/diesel?

It does the same job, so, I am going to guess that it could also cause the same problems.
