06 Tranny Troubles

[the_hammer]

Has anyone noticed a hesitation or slipping between 3rd and 4th when accelerating slowly?

Its almost like the tranny cant decide which gear to go into.

I have a friend that has an 05 that has a very similar problem. It only occurs when he is under light acceleration, because when he is on it hard it seem to shift just fine. He seemed to notice it more with the addition of an power programmer. We both don't know what it is.

I have a slight flair on the one shift, but I can't remember if it's the 2-3 or 3-4. Once in a blue moon event, more throttle, it never does it. I'm almost thinking it's trying to skip shift...

Mine does it with the SCT right now. When going at 40 to 42 mph it goes back and forth between 4th and 5th. It also does in 5th also. It does it around 1200 rpms it hunts between 1200 and 1400 the whole time. It shift flares from 3rd to 4th once in a blue moon. But these are on going problems that haven't been fixed. But in stock form mine never acts up at all.

Oh wow... now I think I know why the torque converter stays unlocked in mine... That would allow the float to keep the gear hunting down.
