Hey, sitting at a stop light today on a hill, which isnt all that steep, let off the brake to go and it rolled backwards.... never happened before. What could be the problem. Oh and its an Auto, its not a driver error haha

 

I'll go out on a limb here. Maybe the tranny was really hot, causing the viscosity of the fluid to decrease and lead to a loss of pressure. Or, something else lead to a loss of pressure? Can't really guess what that could be though.

Mine's done that since day one.

 

100 views and 2 repliles im so sad haha who knows if it leaves me somewhere ill have to kick it and buy a new one

 

very bad fluid coupling (too "loose&quot of the stock converter will allow the truck to roll back on steep hills.

Check the fluid level. I would asume you probobly already did that but ive had problems with the tranie being 1-2 quarts low and slipping when first put into gear. I would move 10-50 feet then stop and try and go again and it would just rev up and go nowhere till i let off the throttle. I filled it up and no more problem.

 

What is the idle?

 

round 800

 

Is it possible that because you were on an incline, the fluid was a little low to begin with, and the incline was just enough to force the fluid to the rear and thus temporarily run you out? Just a thought.LE

 

if your tranny is cold i get that also. once the truck is warmed up, no problems.

 

hasnt done it since, who knows what happened, incline wasnt that great. pry less than when you jack the front up to change a tire, and the truck ran aroudn 120 miles so she was warm but like i said no problems since and im in Sioux City now so hills are a little more drastic here. Thanks for the input
