Tropper Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) Has anyone had this problem and had it fixed. My dealership has had the ECM flashed, torque converter changed and after 500 km's it still does it once in a while (they told me it needed a breakin time of 4 hrs driving) For some reason they will not swap out the auto transmission. They just keep on trying to fix this one. They changed the oil and filter also. Problem has been going on for 2 yrs now. It doesn't do it when I use the Auto-Stick for my upshifts. Shifts are fine then, not shuddering going into 5th gear. Thanks in advance Edited September 3, 2014 by Tropper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that your dealer has been trying to fix it by replacing parts and performing repairs. Has there been any comparisons to other DJs on the lot? I've never noticed this shudder myself, has anyone else noticed this?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropper Posted September 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 (edited) Update So far, keeping my fingers crossed, it seems to be getting better and better (No Shudder 4-5th shift) for last 2 days after about 700 km's. Thanks WesH Edited September 3, 2014 by Tropper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropper Posted September 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Update # 2 Still doing it but at a far less rate than before. I will report back after 1000 km's on the latest repair (600 km's now). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did your dealer mention that there would be an adaptation period or anything of the sorts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropper Posted September 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Yes they did. (4 hrs driving time) It was still doing it in that period but its as stated getting better. I will give it the longer Adaption period (break-in) time before I report back to the forum and the dealership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
