Title says it all. On light throttle shifting into over drive the whole truck will sometimes shudder and slowly slip into OD. Also when I hit the gas and make it downshift from OD it will sometimes shift really hard like a short version of the upshift. It has 165k miles and I recently dropped the trans pan to do a fluid/filter change. I noticed the dip stick plug in the bottom of the pan so this was probably its first fluild/filter change. After that the shuddering got a little less abrupt and sometimes is non existant.
Any ideas? Bad valvebody? Bad solinoid? I am thinking about doing a shift kit from rockauto.com for 40 bucks and hoping that will smooth things out.
Thanks guys.
