Anyone experienced this? Only happens on cold starts at low RPMs, usually when pulling car into/out of garage, or turning around in my driveway. I let the car warm up before driving it, and the problem is gone once I have driven it for a few minutes, or once I get the RPM's above 2500-3000. Wouldnt be worried, except that it seems to be getting worse.... Thoughts?
No codes? Sounds like a tranny problem. Maybe the valve body, front pump or time for filter change....call Eddie at SHR 888-big-hemi and run it by him.
Heh. Well here's hoping its just a filter...needing to fix the tranny would suck, as my short block is going in like mid october, and I dont have the funds to do both. Thanks for the reply!
No problem, anytime...how many miles? Have you ever serviced the tranny? Probably all it is. Eddie's a great guy, he'll steer you in the right direction...May also be a torque converter issue, clutch locking up prematurely...but a bad filter may be causing THAT to happen.
I just rolled over 29k, I think I had the tranny flushed once and that was it. Its slated to go into my dealer just to check and see if its a filter on Monday. If its anything serious I take it outta the dealer's hands.
PM ACRSRT...tell him Stevo recommended him He is a dealer tech in Putman County and your better off making the drive down here than giving it to your dealer if its a warranty item. That or if its a REALLY serious issue, there is always woodbury jeep down in the city...have AJ fix it.
Thanks for the input all. I'm gonna keep my fingers crossed that it is something minor, see what the dealer says and take it from there. Thanks for the recommendations on where to bring my baby for good, reputable service Stevo, god knows I need a place. Man it better not be something serious, otherwise I may have to chose between having a car that runs, and just sitting on my short block, or having my short block in a car that doesnt run....
