I have had problems with the torque converter clutch and had the throttle position sensor replaced.
Received Technical Service Bulletins Ref# 18-02-99 Date of Issue Feb. 19,1999. My truck has 115,000 miles with regular maintenance, IE oil changes, transmission checked and now it is surging again, with last replacement 7/14/05.
What is going on? And am I supposed to drive this truck into the ground? I haul a 3 horse aluminum slant load trailer and a flat bed to pick up hay once per year. Surely this problem is common, because this truck has been maintained like a baby and is paid for, and should in theory run for another 100,000. Can you guide me for some resolution?
I have a 1998 ram 2500 with the cummins turbo diesel. have had numerous problems out of the trans. best advice is to do what I did and replace the transmission with an aftermarket, high quality transmission. they start at about 2100 dollars and go up. I have a lifetime warranty on mine. I pull horses and a 18 foot gooseneck flat loaded with a 610 long 4x4 tractor with forks and haven't had a problem yet. I got mine from bd diesel. hope this helps.
