hello folks,

Own a 2017 ram 3500 (aisin 3.42 transmission).
it all of sudden during shifting from 3rd to 4th it hesitates, rpm goes up and down a few times before shifting... it happens 80% of the time.
i’ll contact ram this week but just wanted to know if anyone else has experience the same “problem”...
i have recycled the tow/hall and exhaust brake.
maybe a computer reset?...
any feedback will be greatly appreciated.

I have a 1500 5.7 and my hesitates going from first to second almost every time I drive it. It only does it once then its smooth as could be.

Sounds like a little fluid is bypassing the valve body plate. Mine did that, dealer said it was normal, transmission shuddered terribly when shifting even under medium throttle input so I put in a BD Diesel plate kit and got some EFI transmission tuning. Worked wonders.

Hello brasgaucho,

Whenever you decide to go into the dealer, let us know. We're available via direct message and can get your inquiry to a Case Specialist for further handling.
