My dodge update
After taking it to a 3 rd respected tranny mechanic he claims it’s fixed. Seems the dodge engenders in there infante wisdom doesn let the torque converter pump at idle. Probbly for gas miladge sales
Gimik Causing oil starvation and heat build up causing transmission to fail
A sift kit to bump pressure and a kit to make it pump at idle.
If this doesn’t fix it I’m putting a Chevy 700 r4 in it
My god, if the trans is less reliable than a 700r4 it must be a huge POS.
I was thinking that same thing.
I will say I have had two (06 and a 14) with manuals before I got the current 20 with the Aisin cause I never wanted to deal with their transmissions. The Aisin seems very well built. Just turned 45K miles on it, mostly towing between 25-35K pounds and it is definitely the strongest truck I have owned to date and the transmission and exhaust brake in Tow/Haul is really darned good. Wasn't sure how I would like the auto but so far, I am pretty happy.
