just found new possible quirk. Not sure. but my transmission seems to shift extremely hard when i shift into the passing gear. is this normal? almost sounds like i hear the rear end or slack in the driveshaft. only in the passing gear though. any thoughts?

 

I have an 04 that I bought used with about 120k on the engine. I was getting a rough shift when it tried to downshift from OD. It would jump and surge and figured it was a tranny problem. Took it to dealer and turned out to be two bad ignition coils. They replaced coils and plugs on those cylinders and it solved the problem.

 

Did you ever figure out why your power mirrors don't work. Mine don't either.
