2011 RAM 1500 with 5 speed 545RFE tranny and 62K miles
about 2 weeks ago: coming stop sometimes jerk and bang when downshifting from 2 to 1, mostly when tranny is "cold" (+/- 70C)
while tranny in neutral will not jerk and bang
last 10 days: almost always while breaking slowly to stop jerk and bang, not only when tranny is "cold"
now: almost always while shifting first and second down or up will lead to jerk and bang
I added a bottle of Lucas Transmission Conditioner and jerk/bang got less noticable, but still there
CEL is not on
tranny oil is right level
only while shifting between frst and second gear
Will change filters and oil help or would it be just a waste of time and $$$
Any suggestions?
