Stuttering between first and 2nd FIXED
Since I owned my truck it has always shifted kind of weird between 1st and 2nd gear at light throttle. It sort of stutters and doesn't shift smoothly. My girlfriend always said she couldn't feel it and it was in my head so I tried to ignore it. I finally took it in to the dealer last week just in case, and turn out the intermediate clutch piston was installed in the wrong orientation at the factory and it had burnt up the clutch plates. Got it all replaced under warranty and now it drives like it should have all along. Just thought I would share a postive story since so much on here only talks about the negatives.

They have that TSB that covers the Torque Converter (loss of power for very short period between 1 & 2 shifts). I think I got that and will have it serviced soon. Kinda liewk the engine shuts down between shifts.
Glad your problem is siolved. My wife says she dont knwo what I'm talking about.
