2000 Durango Transmission Lurches
#1
![Question](https://dodgeforum.com/forum/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I have a 2000 Durango SLT 5.9. I believe that it has a 46RE trans. It has approximately 103,000 miles. Approximately 2000 miles ago I had the water pump and serpentine belt replaced and this is approximately when the issue with the trans started. I have performed a check for a code and the only thing it shows is " P Code", no code. I have already replaced the speed sensor.
Here's the issue:
At highway speeds, going uphill and holding the throttle steady, the trans acts like it wants to shift out of overdrive but doesn't. It feels like it lurches and seems to clunk. It will continue the lurching until I actually throttle down to make the trans shift out of overdrive. If I manually turn the overdrive off there is no issue at all. I don't notice any problems driving in town having the overdrive on.
Without a code, I'm not sure where to start. Any help will be appreciated.

When was the last time you checked your trans fluid and did you do it running at operating temperature (after about 15 miles), after switching in every gear all the way down held for 2 seconds in each gear and all the way back up, then put it in Neutral and check the fluid level. Only use ATF+4 fluid!

I had the same thing going on. going uphill or even at a steady 55 or 60 i"d give it a little gas and it would do this chatter shudder thing til i either floored it or slowed way down. Went and had it completely flushed and problem solved.. thought i was going to need a new tranny,..good luck
