| Description of the problem | The vehicle exhibits shutter and vibration between 25 and 50 mph. The vehicle was taken to toyota dealer where software update for transmission was performed. Technicians said vehicle was shutter free. The shutter did not improve any after this update. Vehicle was then taken to independent mechanic where transmission fluid was flushed twice. Mechanic noted that fluid was extremely dirty required 2nd flush to fully clean system. Vehicle had approximately 70,000 miles at time of incident. Mechanic noted that transmission likely needed replaced but new fluid would help with the issue. Vehicle improved after fluid change but the shutter has now returned with 125,000 miles on vehicle. The shutter feels like the car is running over a rumble strip in between the 25-50 mph range as the car shifts gears. |
