Description of the problem | After cold starts when accelerating the transmission slips from 1st to 2nd and throws your body forward. After that first gear change it doesn't do it again until another cold start. Around 34000 miles i am getting a rumbling vibration through the dash and steering wheel when holding speed between 35-75 mph. The rpm guage will jump slightly and it will feel like going over rumble strips. Acceleration is very weak at times. Sometimes its ok. There has to be something done with these torque converters and transmissions by gm. Unacceptable for a 40-50k dollar truck! |
