Had a noise going on in the tranny had a ride along with the tranny mechanic and didn't get 1 mile and he said that's converter shudder. Ok I have 58000 on my 07 and its covered to the 60000 warranty. Has any body had such an issue that they can tell me what I'm looking at as far as the repair. I'm just wandering if I'm going to come out of pocket on this deal. Thanks

08-14-3*** 5.4L 3V / 4R75E ONLY - BUILT BETWEEN 12/4/2006 TO 5/20/2008 - ENGINE RPM FLARE DURING 3-4 UPSHIFT UNDER LIGHT THROTTLE ONLY

Is the reflash all they did? If so, based on the TSB, someone might be blowing smoke up your butt.

Go back and tell them to fix it. Make sure you document each instance.

Take the time to carefully read your warranty guide. It will explain what's covered.

Wow, all was OK just 22 minutes earlier?

When was the last time the trans was serviced with filter and fresh Mercon V ?

It has noT been serviced yet when I asked the service manager about this he said we don't change filter because that's only needed on a rebuild and he said 60000 is the time to service the tranny.
