Transmission & Rear End Noise
I have a 99 Dakota 3.9 V6 Automatic. The transmission does not shift from low to second the way it should (hesitates) and slips occasionally when first starting off. If I shift the transmission manually it acts completely different & does not slip. I also hear a roaring noise from the rear of the truck. Do I have a transmission issue or a differential issue? Please Reply

RE: Transmission & Rear End Noise
Both were serviced two weeks ago. Problem already existed. I just purchased the truck & knew the problems existed. Just wanting to have the repairs made, but thought I would ask some questions from experienced Dakota owners first. What do you recommendrepairing first, Tranny or Differential?

as for the rear end, go to the magazine stand and get a 4x4 mag, they have adds from rear end shops, any of them should be ably to help. are you sure they put lube back in the rear end?
