Unhappy 2007 Caravan Surging

For about 2 months now I have had this slight surging feeling between 50-70 km/hr or you could actually say at low rpms. Took it to dodge as I found out about the TSB in 2007 with the computer upgrade/flash and/or torque converter replacement. They did both, its still there. I even noticed it on the highway today as well and its a bit worse and totally noticeable. New plugs, wires, cleaned throttle body, injectors cleaned, cap checked out, new fluids you name it, its still there. Am I wrong to think Dodge didnt even change it as I had to yell at them just to look at the van? Its only getting worse now and since I have about 88000 km on it, and warranty is 12000 left on it, I dont want it to be something major after 100,000 km and I have to pay for it. Its been hooked to a computer and reads no codes at all, or even in history of the van and does not misfire at all. I feel its still in the torque converter/transmission area, any ideas or experiences with this?

Take a tech for a ride or have them install a "copilot" scanner that will read and record real-time data.

Burn,

Sorry to hear about the problem your having with your van. If you cannot get this issue resolved through the dealer, I would suggest calling the Canadian Customer Assistance Centre at 800-465-2001 and get them involved. They can get some tech support for the dealer if the dealer cannot pinpoint and solve your problem.
