| My 04 3500 dually is doing this too
My dually 50 k miles on it has been at the dealership for three days now.. I took it in because of the hesitation after sitting over night in the garage. it does not always slip, and oif course they can not duplicate the scenario.
There was a leak that started saturday, I figured another rock had hit the spin on oil filter. but not it was fine fluid was not coming from that item.
I have an extended warranty so i took it in. They said it was the shift shaft seal that was leaking. so they ordered the part. well lo and behold the leak was above that, coming from a vent he said.. The service tech called me and asked what I haul or tow with the truck. I replied.. well wife drives it to work and occassionally she hauls some very heavy groceries in the back. LOL
and it has not had a trailer hitched to it in six months and that was either the 31 foot airstreamTT or the car hauler with the jeep sitting on it. Neither of which go over 8k. so basically he told me he has no idea why the fluid has ran out the vent.he said it must have been hot.. I have towed up mountains and all over the west towing the airstream and never once in 90 plus degrees did it ever get near 200 even. so I doubt hauling groceries it overheated.
Could my problem be the same as above?Thanks in advance.. |
