2001 Durango, 5.9L, AT, 4X4. I have noticed that the transmission often feels like you are "pulling" something when you are not. Gears 1, 2, & R are fine. What I have noticed even more is that lately after I have driven about a mile or so and come to a stop at light or stop sign...while I am sitting still the transmission feels like it "kicks" down and you can feel the vehicle move forward like someone rear ended you. I just did the gasket and filter and added Seafoam TransTune hoping to clear it up...obviousy I was praying for a quick solution. ANy thoughts!!!

Yeah I know what you are saying about the Seafoam TransTune. The problem was happening before I had this done... and the mechanic said it would clear the lines out of any junk... which he said "may" clear up any issue. No...they did not adjust the bands...I didn't ask him to. Is this hard to do? I am VERY mechaical...but this is the first transmission I have had problems with. I have the manual download but I am sure it doesn't get into any major detail on the adjustment process. It is just so weird in how it acts. Some mornings when its cold it just starts to take offf with no problems. Other times when it starts to warm up or if it has been idling at a stop it just feels like you are pulling a trailor when you take off. What bugs me even more than that is the action of the durango at a stop. At times you will actually "feel" it shift forward and it feels like someone just rear ended you. I just bought it and the motor was completely rebuilt and I'd hate to take it to the dealership since they socked me $400.00 to bleed the ABS system. Is there any way to see if there is a stored code on the transmission since I have no CEL light on? If I wanted to test the torque solenoid..where is it?
