Truck is a 2011 5.7 hemi
So my transmission seems to be going downhill fast. A year and a half ago I got a remanufactured transmission from Street Smart Transmissions and helped my mechanic install it. It has been ok thus far, but as of a couple weeks ago it started having issues. With his snap-on scanner, we checked line pressures and in 4th it would spike to 190+psi while desired was 140ish. Now tonight it looks like I lost 3rd. Does this seem to indicate a transmission problem, solenoid problem, or maybe something else?
I will also add that the transmission when shifted manually would be in 1st when 1st was selected, 2nd in 2nd, 2 prime in 3rd, 3rd in 4th, 4th in 5th. Does this sound correct for how the 545rfe is set-up?
I will be working with Street Smart to get this figured out as well (free replacement if it's their problem), but I wanted to get some opinions here first. Going 45-50 at 3k rpm is starting to suck.
