it seems as tho the dodge boys have finally solved the stalling problem. for
those who haven't been following this i'll lay it out first. took my 00 QC
AUTO 4X4 in for its 30k fluid change.after picking it up the dak would stall
(intermmitantly) whenever i came to a stop at a red light or stop sign, or
when i would try to parallel park. well, after 4 trips back to the
dealership doing the work they finally solved it. at least i hope they did.
i only got it back a few hours ago. anyways, since i'm not a mechanical whiz
i'll read right off the work order. "check truck stalls when coming to stop
or put in rev(erse). diagnosed and found after calling star hotline was told
to check pressure at the pressure switch(.) removed trans pan found filter
not sitting propper(.) reposition filter and test drove(.)" so there you
have it - an improperly seated tranny filter that was causing a pressure
leak, causing intermittant stalling. please put that in the archives. btw, i
hope these jackasses lose their 5 star rating on this one. adam
