I've searched and couldn't find a similar problem so I thought I'd make a thread...sorry if it's a repost
My problem isn't major, just annoying. I have an '02 Limited KJ, 3.7L, and every single time, since the thing was brand new, when I shift from Park to Drive, or to reverse or any combo of Park/Drive/Reverse, it seems to shift hard, with a good thunk. Just like if you were on the throttle and shifted. It's been in the dealership and they just said all KJ's do it, I've changed the transmission fluid and filter several times, doesn't help.
It doesn't seem to have affected the transmission's life either - it has 111k miles and runs and shifts on the fly extremely smoothly. But shifting in and out of first it slams in and out of gear. It's getting really annoying...
Anyone else have this problem? Maybe the idle is set to high?? is the idle adjustable?
Flame away...
