Reverse Delay/Soft Engagement
Reply to thread
Message
[QUOTE="GreenF350, post: 1496326, member: 7731"] Lately my truck has been having a significant delay going into reverse and is very soft on the engagement when it does. This only happens on the first startup of the day and I get in a hurry and back up fairly quick after starting. If I let it sit and idle for a few minutes like I normally do it will engage right away and have the solid engagement that has been normal since I got it. Any later starts in the day seem to be fine. It has no problem holding torque in reverse once engaged solidly (even when backing a trailer or up a hill) or any other gear. Shifts fine, etc. It's an old Suncoast transmission that I had installed back in 2007 that now has about 170,000 on it. What's everyone's thoughts? Despite the miles it still seems to operate fine in every other way so I'm not sure that it's time for a new trans yet, but not sure where to start. I thought maybe the filter was just clogged up, but it hasn't been TOO long since it was last done and it will go into the forward gears just fine, even if shifted right away after starting. -Aaron [/QUOTE]
