problem #1

Jan 072004

Tundra 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,000 miles
Truck lurches at times when stopping, downshifts are sometimes hard. I've had several dealers look at it, and they have said it's "fine". there is no transmittion filter (standard) so I payed to have it flushed. It worked great for a couple days. I think this has to do with the drive shaft, and the requirement for re-torquing that is supposed to be done to it according to the user manual. I have kept up the maintenance on it, but I think its some flaw in the linkage or a control problem. Tires are now new, but has had no effect. Basically, it sometimes shifts/jerks like it has a belt drive, not a geared one.
