Trans issues

Going in between D and R is slow, and 2-3 sucks, especially gong from 3 down to 2.... and 3-4 is weak.

I have IDP tunes. Im on top of maintenance.

If I remember correctly it is the solenoids that will need replacing.

What should I do to the trans?

Thank you.

What does it do if you flash the truck back to stock settings, drive it, then reload the tunes?

When a problems surfaces, always remove any tuner first then see what you have. Sometimes, the programming will get a little lost, the reflash will set things straight again and remove the bad habit it acquired.

That sucks. You would think the quality would be as good as OEM when it comes to this kind of sensitivity.

Thanks for the advice. I will do that tomorrow and give it 2 weeks.
