I've searched the site off and on over the last couple of days but can't seem to find any posts that relate to my problem.
I was having the notorious bump issue on my 2007 V-8 automatic tranny. I complained to the service manager at my Ford dealer and he had me bring it in so he could "re-program the transmission." After I got it back, the bump issue was fixed but the tranny was leaking!
So I took it back and they replaced the pan gasket. No leaks since but now ...and this is my reason for this post....I'm getting a low-speed surge at around 31 or 32 miles per hour where the tranny seems to be hunting for another gear. Watching the tach while this surge is going on shows it to bump up about 200 RPM every five or 10 seconds or so.
It will stop doing this at about 40 MPH. The problem does not occur at any other speed.
It's driving me nuts because there are so many streets I drive on with a 35 MPH speed limit.
Anybody have any thoughts? I'm supposed to take it in Friday but when I made the appointment they looked at me as I've I was crazy...like I was imagining this problem.
