    Shutter on acceleration

    My question is this, how is Chrysler getting away with not letting its customers know that the 8-speed transmission in fact needs its fluid changed every 50-60k miles?? Class action??

    Shutter on acceleration

    FYI, I was experiencing shudder and hard shifts while in tow/haul mode. Fluid change and Shudder Fixx made a world of difference.

    Shutter on acceleration

    Picked up my truck today after the transmission fluid change. Felt some shuddering and hard shifts for about 20 miles or so, and then the truck started shifting like butter. I bought the truck in 2019 with 70,000 miles, and this is the smoothest the truck has ever shifted since I bought it...

    Shutter on acceleration

    YIKES! I had my local mechanic put a new pan on with Valvoline Max Life and a tube of Shudder Fixx. 2014 Ram with the ZF 8HP70 and 112k miles. I'm picking my truck up today and hope that after 50 miles or so my symptoms disappear. I can't imagine paying $6-8k for a new transmission, but with the...

    Is the Dorman drain plug in a better spot than the dreaded OE pan?

    If you have a 8HP70 Trans and have had a shudder...Please tell us how you fixed it

    Could you list the steps you used to add 2 ounces of Shudder Fixx since these models don't have a dipstick?

    Ram 1500 acceleration issues

    After researching other forums, it sounds like we may both be experiencing early tranny issues. Sounds like others have had success using Lubegard Shudder Fixx.

    Ram 1500 acceleration issues

    WOW, I also have a 2014 Ram with the 8-speed tranny and 5.7 Hemi. I have the EXACT same issues. I noticed the 'blip' in RMPs a few months ago, and just this past weekend, I noticed the 'shudder' when accelerating up a hill. My truck has 112k miles. Have you had any luck resolving this issue? I...

    steering column rattle (brake pedal)

    Any luck? I have the same issue, when driving straight down the highway. Doesn't happen/rattle when I hit every bump, but I think it is getting worse.

    Rattle/Buzzing sound coming from steering column

    Was the cable loose, or how did they fix it? Replace or tighten? I have a weird rattle noise that seems to be coming from my steering column, but it only happens on highway when I go over cracks/seams in the highway. Driving me nuts!!!

    2017 Steering Issues and code C15C1 EPS Mechanical Performance

    What would be the side effects of having a worn out bushing in the shaft?? When I'm driving on a bumpy highway, my truck will sometimes veer slightly left or right, kind of scary. Doesn't happen too often, but it happens.

    Rear Differential Locking Up

    This is exactly what the problem was. Replaced the parking brake shoes and problem solved. Thank you! Now onto my next/related issue. Apparently my parking brake cable/s are stretched and need to be replaced, because when the parking brake pedal is pushed all the way down, the parking brake...

    Rear Differential Locking Up

    I was wondering the same thing. I thought the rear sensors were just a warning device, not something that would actually stop the truck.

    Rear Differential Locking Up

    Bought my truck with 70k, now has 106k. I will be getting the differentials serviced very soon.

    Rear Differential Locking Up

    Straight back in reverse.

    Rear Differential Locking Up

    No dash messages. 8-speed with rotary shifter. I honestly don't think it is the autopark feature. Truck remains in reverse and the R on the rotary shifter is not blinking.
