2015 SR5 AT New purchase concerns - hard shift

@gearcruncher

Unfortunately I'm out of the country .And I don't know my VIN.. soon as I get back I'll do it

 

It really is pretty sporadic but most often and more often than not, the rumble/vibe is in the 25-45 range. I dont think it increases with change in speed.

To do List: Torque Converter Test, check throttle body, bring to dealer, balance tires.

This forum was one of the deciding factors in my Tacoma purchase. Now I can WebMD myself and TW my truck!

So if this should have been done on a regular service, mine should have been done and recorded on Toyota.com. It was not recorded.

 

Yeah , they didn't do mine on it's service .. it was updated after I complained about the vibe and unsmooth gear changes . Came
Under my warranty

Thanks to
Wakecoach

Excellent info !!

 

Happy to help. Sure owe TW a few favors after all the info I've got from here

 

Update: Engine was warm, truck hard shifted 3 times in the matter of a second or two from first to second gear . A light on the dash blinked closest to the tacometer but i didnt get a clear look. My guess was check engine light but im not sure. Calling the dealer now

 

Did you order up a scan guage for your new truck ? Highly suggested as you can check your own codes . If you ever plan to tow , you will be able to watch trans temps plus many other parameters .

Unless you like the looks of the Ultraguage better

Not only this but when you go into the dealer for warranty repairs , youve got a leg to stand on when they say they cant reproduce your issue or say its normal .
Show them the code thats popping up on the guage . Print out the TSB related to the code . Many of us have had to go this route to get warranty repairs
