Transmission sticking in first to second!

[Tyler Lance 2]

This sucks....I almost get the trucked repoed. I save it and now the transmission sticks when I go into second gear.....!!!



I'm really hopeing nothing is major...My girls father re-builds Trans. he suggested putting in a bottle of lube guard to see if that helps. I hope so.....



Anyone else had this problem, with there ST? Any other suggestions would help-thanks!:huh:

Tyler, Auto or manual?... What do you mean sticks?? Engine flair? rough shift?



And most of the tranny additives don't work...

The trac trans is shifted by the ECU computer..it could be that...

If it's a manual transmission you might have a linkage problem, or a bad syncronizer ring, or warn shift forks. It can also be cause by a worn clutch.



Please clarify what you mean by "Sticking"

Hey...I just started feeling this same problem a few days ago. When accelerating and the truck goes to shift from first to second, I feel a stick...almost as though it's trying to shift to second, but falls back to first before shifting into second. I havent had it looked at yet...any ideas?

I think a slight adjustment of the EPC solenoid might fix the problem. Don't keep driving it. If something is slipping, you will burn the clutches causing it to require a complete rebuild.
