My '02 4x4 has been experiencing problems. Sometimes when it shifts to second gear, it acts like it is in neutral for just a moment then goes on into second. It doesn't do this all the time. Out of 10 stops and starts, it probably hesitates maybe 5 times. I was told to put a quart of Lucas in it and I did. Still didn't help. Another guy said it may be a sensor that tells the tranny when to shift may be going out. I have no idea. Any suggestions??

 

mine has started doin the same thing lately. I got an 01

 

How many miles on your truck?

When was the last time you changed your tranny fluid and filter?

Have you tried re-setting the computer, in case it has "learned" this strange pattern of shifting?

 

My truck has 149k on it. Fluid and filter changed about 1000 miles ago. As far as the computer goes, how do I reset that?

 

Fixed the problem...sold it!! Bought a 2001 4X4 this afternoon. Post pix soon!!

 

Why would you go to an older truck?

 

It's only a year older, but has 30K less miles.

 

That's how we fixed my wife's 2000 Grand Am steering problem...bought an Outlander!!
