o6 trans questions
ok had the truck for 3 days and the auto tranny is acting weird shifting all the time ( in town driving) very eratic when i let up then put the throttle back on then it changes 2-3 times before i figures it out ,and all gears shifting real hard??
is this because it is learning or because im babying it for the first 500 miles slow accel(not reving above 2000) or is the trans screwed up
the truck i traded was 5spdauto hemi pretty smooth compared to thisand it only acted wird for 50 miles, i now have 130mi on the diesel
thanks
