Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
2013 Rubicon JKU no drivetrain mods, stock tires and wheels. 47K miles. Auto Transmission.
For about the last week, I notice a little bit of an odd shift pattern to the trans. I have been driving it, kinda trying to figure out when it does it, and how to replicate the odd feeling shift.
I don't want to take it to the dealership and trust the techs to even know what I am talking about, until I can take them for a ride and show them.
The best I can describe what has been happening, is that it has a hard down shift at a time that it would not be under heavy throttle, then it shifts back up again. It really seems like a minor thing that you an over-look, but then I keep thinking it may lead to something more troublesome down the road.
So, as I am driving it today, I suddenly feel like it has no power, and isn't downshifting at all under hard throttle. So I take it home and read up in the manual.
I guess the transmission went into limp mode, which is something I have never heard of or read about until today. I let it sit, and started it up again and it is not in limp mode anymore. I haven't really driven it any more after that. I don't feel like getting stuck somewhere.
I put a code reader on it, and it doesn't throw any codes. Is there something common I can look for or change?
Anybody had this type of problem?
Thanks folks!
