05 ram 2wd with hemi not shifting into overdrive

Asked by Guru3SHGC Jul 07, 2020 at 09:07 PM about the 2005 Dodge RAM 1500 Laramie LB RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

truck shifts fine through all the other gears, but when it goes to shift into o/d, rpm's climb way up without increasing speed, then will get a sudden jerk.  if I switch it to tow haul, runs fine but this kills my highway mileage

1 Answer

forgot to mention, when I first felt this happen, I changed trans fluid and filters. took it to a trans shop, they looked at it for 10 min, and immediately says it needs trans rebuilt. I am just wondering if they are just trying to get me for $2500, and maybe its something else
