| Description of the problem | 2005 toyota tundra double cab, v8. When cold engine idles higher than what i would consider normal. When stopped at stop lights and the like in normal driving the transmission will jump or kick sometimes causing vehicle to move forward... Especially when a/c is on. When cruise control on it will downshift to passing gear and accelerate way more than normal, tach goes to near redline, when encounter the slightest of grades... Also happens when cruise is disengaged to slow and then resumed. Transmission shifts improperly when slowing down such as when slowing to make a turn... When apply the gas going through the turn the engine will rev before slipping back into gear. I began noticing these things immediately after purchasing vehicle in nov. '05. *jb |
