Acceleration and torque problems

[Wifey]

The e.c.u. jamming it into 3rd is a definite sign of the transmission being in Limp-In Mode.
Sometimes the outside electrical connectors require a cleaning and careful tweaking of a pin or two, as they can cause the Limp-In issue through improper grounding. This sends the wrong info to the e.c.u. and forces the transmission to use third.
What's odd is there is no Check-Engine light. There MAY be a code resident if he uses the key on, off, on, off ON procedure (?)
I've yet to see a fluid/filter change and/or band adjustment "repair" issues like he is having (particularly slipping). Once slipping starts it takes no time at all before friction materials clog those tiny Governor screens, line pressure is lost and it's game over.

Relax, you have a standard.

Right!! Makes a big difference, no limp in mode hahaha

Unless you are driving on a flat tire.

That's true!! Definitely limp mode

Yes it wouls .. imagine a full bore burnout with those

Yes it wouls .. imagine a full hore burnout with those

Could put ya in intensive care!!

And the acceleration thread falls subject to a ho tromping! Uhhh ohhhh

 

[Wifey]

Any updates on the transmission??

Today they called me from the workshop. One of the valves, is not working - broken or bad conection. They will chek it and if neccesary buy it from US. I hope I will get my car ready before Christmas.

Coulda , Should and forsure woulda

No , Say it isnt so .. That would never happen on here lol

Did they say what specific valve or what connection ?

Hope you get it by then too

No, but I will ask them.

Your transmission is taking off in 3rd gear based on the poor acceleration and your engine speed of 3300 rpm at 60 mph at the very end of the video, which is also correct for being in 3rd.
And there is no shifting going on.

Right now, your transmission is in Limp-In Mode (which puts it in 3rd), regardless of the fact there is no check engine light visible on your dashboard in the video, which is a bit odd.

It has either an electrical or a hydraulic problem.

Because you mentioned slipping, the very likely remedy is to pull the transmission and have it rebuilt.

Sometimes you can get lucky with the external electrical connectors but as it was slipping before and is now in Limp-In Mode, the prognosis isn't good.

Good luck.

Hey Ronnie, you seem to be very knowledgeable about this issue, my truck stays stuck on 3rd gear with bunch of codes that are electric related. I was told the TIPM needs rebuild. My question is, do you know anyone that does rebuilt this tipms? Sometimes shifts normal and if i hit a bump or something just stays stuck on 3rd

Wow that's alot of codes. Good luck hopefully @rottenronnie will have some good info for you. Welcome

Thanks!!! It’s amazing how you guys are like a family!! Ive been reading post trying to find someone with a problem similar to mine until i found this post lol…i saw your name and Ronnie’s and a couple of other members here that have been here since these trucks came out!!
