2001 Ram 5.2 auto with 46re trans shifting back and forth from 3-4th gear !
Hello to one & all, I was wondering if anyone could help me Please figure out what’s up with my 2001 Ram 1500 5.2 4X4.
When I’m on the highway and put the pedal down to climb hills or pass someone the transmission will gear down and I can accelerate but then if I keep it down when it reaches high enough Rpm & speed to shift back up into 4th in keeps going into 4th & then back to 3rd over & I over again constantly.. if I let off the pedal it’s ok but then I lose speed, especially on hills or towing. Then once this happens it does it more & more even at lower speeds and even on level ground. I appreciate all info & help Thanks..... 2001RamGuy

Thanks Twangin4u I’ll check it out 👍
Thanks very much I will 👍. I recently did a minor service on it just fluid, filter & gasket & also adjusted the bands 1 internally & the high gears externally, they were all way way to slack.. one the external (high gear) band I found online all kinds of settings for the 46RE from torque to so many inch lbs. which I got right with my inch lb. torque wrench to back off 2 &1/2 turns all the way up to 3 I tried setting it at 2 1/2. Would it help if I backed it off more up to 3 turns ?? Thanks so much 👍
