Post subject: | Transmission Petition |
I don't know if this has been posted before, but there is an online petition to DCX regarding the CRD transmission issues. I have no idea how effective this can be, but I don't see how it can hurt as an effort for them to notice the product issues they have and how they need to stand buy their offerings. http://www.petitiononline.com/kjcrd/petition.html |

Great idea! Hopefully if we can get a 1000 or more signatures, they might address the issue?? ![]() |

We are up to 127 who have e-signed the petition to DCX about the transmission shudder. Anyone else? |

Just signed as well, #136 I was hoping I would be lucky enough to avoid this mess. I guess I can uncross my fingers now ![]() Tranny fluid has been fine from day one, so that is not the problem. |

Mine's been on it a while. I'm about ready to order a TransGo shift kit and install it myself. It will be 2 years next March and it doesn't look like DC is any closer to an answer. |

Ranger 1 skip the diode install with the TransGo, it does help, but if I try, I can still get mine to do it a bit. |

Thanks for the info. Is it a diode or resistor? I read somewhere that the resistor changes a voltage reading to the TCM to raise the line pressure, hence the warning in the instructions to leave it out if you use any other programs that do the same. I read that the latest flashes raise the line pressure in an attempt to solve the problem also. Any improvement would be worth it to me - I don't have to try anything to have it happen. Did it this morning several times. I see there are 2 versions of the Transgo... which one did you use? Do you know what the difference is other than price? |

Just signed it. Tranny's in these CRD's are terrible. This needs to be addressed. Shuddering and banging. Passed a vehicle the other day and when I passed and backed off, the tranny felt like it was skipping. Felt like a spark plug misfire as in a gasser. DC has to address this tranny issue. I can't understand why in the world they can't fix it. Are other diesels by DC, as in their trucks, doing the same things? |

it seems very slow to respond to input as well. I think that is part of the reason for all the banging. I mainly notice it when resuming accelleration at very low speeds...like when making a turn or taking off from a toll booth. With 5,100 miles on her....it feels like a worn out tranny. It doesn't seem to be slipping...but it just feels slow to respond. |

^^^Yes you are. Or you just don't notice it. At first I took it for a bumpy road. But then I noticed I was bumping front to back-not up and down. |

While accelerating my CRD is smooth as a baby's bottom, but once it is up to speed and cruising it feels rough. Even worse if 4x4 is engaged. It was much worse before doing the flashes/recalls. Somewhat better now, but its not completely fixed. |
