Not sure the proper way to check it, but for what its worth mine is slow to grab too after shifting from drive to reverse or vice versa. I think it may be just the way they are.
Yep, I think the transmission is just slow to shift from D to R, or R to D.Not sure the proper way to check it, but for what its worth mine is slow to grab too after shifting from drive to reverse or vice versa. I think it may be just the way they are.
My guess is you werent using the parking brake? That gets a clank out of most all auto trans vehicles.when shifting from p to reverse i get a loud clank especially if im on an incline any ideas
This seems to be a common problem. All my shifting issues are gone and seems to have a smoother idle when in gear,My '07 Frontier with 15K mi had a AT pause from a stop.
Checked the ATF stick .... it was a pint low on the AT juice.
Added 16 oz of "Matic J" and pause problem was gone.
