Problem for Dodge 1999 Ram

Transmission slipping in and out




By Therinnaiguy on May 16, 2008

" "
5 speed automatic, 5.9 ci. Truck sometimes does not shift from first to second without me having to flutter the gas pedal. Sometimes it shifts but at a high RPM (3000 or so). Sometimes the truck shifts just fine but on a steep grade, drops from second to first abruptly (Entrance ramps and hills). The truck had a trans rebuild 30,000 miles ago due to a bad leak. What are we looking at here?

.
CHECK OIL LEVEL, IF IT'S LOW ADD SOME AND SEE IF THAT CURES THE PROBLEM " YOU HAVE TO MEASURE IT WITH THE TRUCK AT IDLE AND ON PARK GEAR, SHIFT TO NEUTRAL AND TO PARK AGAIN "

BUT IT SEEM LIKE YOU HAVE A BAD TRANSMISSION

Not sure what year is your truck but try checking the speed sensor which is located in the rear differential. Sounds like the same problem I had which turned out to be the speed sensor
