Hi,
I have completed all regular maintenance including the transmission every 40,000. Most of my problems are a result of the malfunctioning IPDM. The dealer could not diagnose the IPDM as it does not throw codes. Once the truck completely died, we were able to isolate the IPDM. The product is on national backorder. It took almost a month to get in. How many miles does your truck have. I really like my truck and would like to keep it. Just completed the bypass on the transmission oil cooler saturday and I believe I saved the tranny. I spoke with the dealer this morning and they recommend an external trans oil cooler. I will start shopping for one now. If you know of anyone that has one let me know. Two of my friends has this problem with the antifreeze in the transmission fluid but they did not catch it in time. Both were out well over 5K.
