so i noticed my trans was shifting really hard at 30 mph... like 1200 RPM shift. wondering if any1 else has noticed this. i tried counting the shifts and it shifts 4 times on a 6 speed... that includes the 200 RPM shift from 2nd to 3rd :)

after playing around with manual shift i noticed my truck was skipping 4th gear(or so i have come to think) cause in manual mode it feels normal but when im in auto it shifts 1200 RPM.

any thoughts, and if i didnt make this clear plz let me know so i can kill more of your brain cells with my post. THANKS

Sounds like it is skipping a gear, and keeping the torque converter locked up, so engine speed is too high for the gear it's trying to get into, and so it thumps hard when it changes gears...

Sound like your problem?
