ok so heres what i'm gathering so far.
Heres what i've noticed for a while now...
when the truck shifts at 45mph the rpms will jump about 200-300 or so...then it'll shift...being that i don't drive overly agressive or abuse my truck (because i know expos have weaker trannies) i just had been thinking it was just a really LOW shift and the engine had to bump up the rpms a bit more. because the times that i've PUNCHED it and it would seemingly shift flawlessly.
heres what i've noticed happening just in the past couple weeks
i leave my truck sit either at work/home/school for i'd say its always at least 5+ hours. When i go to leave it drives fine until i get to shift that usually happens around 45mph....just lately its not been shifting right. (I.E today i think it shifted into at 55??) Not sure if its related to the problem above.
The lady i bought it from had the tranny fluid and filter changed at about 45k ??(i believe, i know it wasn't TOO long ago) the truck and it just turned 69k last week.
the tranny fluid still appears to be a nice red color still..
any insight on what i should consider...i'm scared that its a big problem starting to arise....
