2014 4X4 5.7L 8spd CC 25K miles. A few times recently after coming off long runs on the interstate (300~ miles), I have had a loud clunk come from the transmission. I can't feel it but def hear it during the downshift. I haven't had the gear indicator up on the evic to verify what gear though. It operates perfectly otherwise. Any idea what the issue is? It only does it after extended stretches on the interstate so only at operating temp.

BTW I factory ordered this truck in Jan of 2014 and am absolutely in love with it! It has been the most solid rig I have ever owned and plan to keep a LONG time. I'm actually planning to purchase the Lifetime warranty in the coming weeks. The longest ever I've ever owned another truck was right at 36 months so that says something...

Hi Punishher7,

If you decide to visit your local dealership for further diagnosis I'd be happy to follow up with them for you if needed. Just PM our page with your VIN and let me know!
