tranny going dumb

Anyone else have a 09 with 4500 miles 5 speed auto that doesn't seem to shift right. when I slow down from 30-40 mph and turn into a side road at around 15 mph my tranny acts like it gets stuck between 1st and second gear, have to rev the motor over 2000 rpm to get it to grab and take off.broughtit to dealer and they said that it was a known prob and I had to wait for toyota to recall and make a fix.

 

never heard of it! good to know

 

I have an 09 sr5 5 speed auto and it does the same thing quite frequently, very aggravating. Please post if you hear of a recall.

 

Search this topic, there is an ongoing. Alot of trucks with the exact same issue.

 

Driving ( around town ) in 4th seems to really help....

 

This problem is all over the place here.

 

It would have to be safety related to be considered a recall but it might be a TSB by Toyota someday. I do notice this issue somewhat like it is caught between gears and doesn't know if it should downshift or upshift..

 

Hmmm never had that issue before. Mine's been working pretty flawless. Only thing I could compare is mine doesn't like to downshift into first unless you floor it... makes for annoying jumps in traffic... you're either balls to the wall or a slow slug getting out.

 

We're talking about the auto tranny.
