I Don't know if mine is the same exact problem as that, but I experience the
same vibrating and rattling at low Rpms, and especially in overdrive, like
giving it a little gas, or going up a hill.. It shakes the whole truck
really bad, and then it makes a loud clicking, rattle sound which sounds
like it comes from the transmission. I took it to the dealer already once,
and they didn't fix it. I haven't had time with work and all to go, but
when I do go I will demand it should be fixed.
