Transmission issue or normal?

Just the revving and TW members reporting when the 3rd Gen first arrived with a transmission cooler the factory was under filling them. Dealer checked and filled it under warranty.

 

Sweet, Thankyou. Will call and have them check the fluid level while they have it for the Child Anchor Recall.

 

If you don’t trust your dealer or if they say the level is fine, you can check it yourself.

While under warranty, I like to have the dealer address issues like they should. When out of warranty, I will deal with it myself.

 

Appreciate it, you never know. Hopefully they do it and it fixes the issue like it did for you.

 

You could also check if there is a TSB software update for your transmission.

would a 22 have an update?

 

Since my 2016 had a software update in 2017 and the OP on the above thread needed his 2019 to get different software update, it doesn't hurt to ask about a TSB for a 2022.

 

All i can comment on this was my 2020 3.5 auto already had the update when i picked it up. I would assume a 2022 would also.

 

Insert obligatory smart ass manual transmission comment.

 

Same here guys, same here, 2016 just started doing this about a year ago. i change (drain and top off according to proper procedure) trans fluid every 25k , may mess with the fluid levels to see. Also, mine only does this when its cold. if all systems really hot then no issue. probably a fluid issue. 134k miles BTW.

 

mine does that, i wait for it to lock up before giving it gas.

 

After looking deeper into mine i think it’s just in “Low” and sometimes rolling too fast to notice power. Still gonna get the fluid checked next time i’m at the dealer. 6 hour trip today and it was fine

 

nice. Sounds like a non-issue, hopefully is. Not sure if you wanna avoid the dealer appointment and runaround, but you can check it yourself FWIW. Its pretty simple

 

Yeah you’re probably right about the run around. My trucks affected by the child seat anchor recall so will probably get that done and was gonna ask them to check while they had it but i haven’t been able to get a hold of them.

 

the chisel recall. they hit your welds with a chisel to check the integrity...

 

Yes sir, already failed the chisel test! According to them my recall was done but haven’t been able to get ahold of anyone useful..

 

Had them check it today. Said they replicated the “issue” with the scan tool hooked up and it’s doing everything it should. Also said they checked the fluid and it’s spot on. They still have my truck for the seat anchor recall so i’ll ask more tomorrow.
