Recently I dropped the Pan changed the filter and fluid (Amsoil A/T Transmission Fluid), topped off, started and flushed the cooler via remove outlet started truck allowed the fluid to pump out until clean while allowing clean fluid in via bucket and manual pump.
Waited for trans to heat up, removed the level drain plug, allowed the excess to drain to a trickle.
Everything seemed good for the first few trips until I had to hard stop then take off, felt like the trans fell out of first then engaged again once gas pedal was pressed.
The next trip in bumper-to-bumper traffic the truck seemed like it was slipping in second gear until it shifted into 3rd then acted fine?
I plan to check the fluid level again using the ODBII Jumper method...
Questions,
Could the filter be clogged? I bought one from O'Rielly's a power torque brand, they were out of Wix at the time.
Could there be a filter quality issue?
Or am I just still low on fluid? Don't see any leaks so not sure how the "slipping" got worse over a few drives unless the filter is clogged..
I do have Autoenginuity software, Are there any PID's I can monitor for the transmission?
