wierd shifting into 2nd
Hey all,
I have a 2009 v6 4wd outlander with 104,000KM on it and in the mornings (when cold..it's been about 0 degrees C here lately, but happens when colder), it really feels weird shifting into second. It almost feels like it hesitates too long and then shifts into second. Once warmed up it seems better. Anyone else notice that? Any weird shifting into second from anyone else? Thanks! |
Yes, I notice the same on a 2008 LS with 35k, although I'm not sure if its 1->2 or 2->3. The A/T ECU behaves differently before the fluid warms up...it wont go above 3rd I believe as well...had it happen to me a few times when I needed to go from being parked for hours right onto a highway. Likewise, when below 0 (rare here) it does hold the lower gears longer until it warms up.

With that kind of mileage, it might be a case of transmission seals worn and not sealing completely until the trans is warm.

It's a known problem. Go to your dealer with this TSB number :)
PURPOSE Customers of some affected vehicles may notice a shock when the transmission shifts from 1 st to 2nd or downshifts from 3rd to 2nd, when the fluid temperature is below 10°C (50°F). This condition is due to transmission fluid line pressure being higher than expected at these temperatures. This TSB describes procedures to reprogram the TCM with new parameters to correct the condition.
