Hi everyone

I have a 2013 ram 4.7 that bogs down at around 4000 rpm when it’s floored.

I took it to the dealership, they said that the transmission needed to be replaced even though according to what i saw it was fine. I let them replace it as i have maxcare on the truck and it wouldn’t cost me much for them to do it.

Same issue is happening again with absolutely 0 change. Dealer says it’s normal but the truck loses pretty much all it’s got once it hits 2nd gear to the point where if i’m passing someone up i have to get back behind them again as it just does not want to go. If i keep my foot on the gas, it will eventually wake up and kick you back a bit even though your foot has remained planted the entire time.

Doesn’t happen all the time but most of the time. Counted the 0-60 to be around 13 seconds BELOW sea level.

Plugs have been replaced, theres a new air filter. Oil pressure is good, throttle body is cleaned, doesn’t seem to be much of an issue on the engine side atleast i don’t think. This truck also has an e-fan delete.

Also shudders a ton at low RPM. Goes away with tow/haul mode on.

Cats clogged?
For whatever reason i don’t seem to get notifications on here.

I don’t think the cats are clogged, and if they were, wouldn’t it be constant and maybe have a CEL for catalyst efficiency?
