 downshifting weirdness
we were backroading in wis saturday and this happened two separate times, but
not right together. shifted down coming to a stop. freewheeled through 3 gears
and then ,bam, went into the last gear. havent had anything lie that happen since my tps switch
was warrantied for water in it when new. drove another 140 miles or so the rest of the day and
never had a problem. checked everything underneath and all great. computer glitch ? oil level
is fine. just wondered if anyone has had this happen. thank you!!--irv toms

Road gremlins? Is your gremlin bell well secured and close to the pavement? This is the best tech advice I can give.

So you were riding in 5th gear then? So what you are saying is it downshifted smoothly into 4th, 3rd, and 2nd, and kind of crashed down into 1st, right? My suspicion would be something related to the hydraulics of the shifting system.

actually was in 6th at the start. when i have no one behind me i use the
gears to slow down. brakes are still original and look good at 32.000. to be honest i dont know for sure but i think it finally grabbed in 2nd. could have been first. was over 100 miles from
home and unhappy and scared thoughts were going through my mind. other than 1
compressor and an early dess module, havent had a problem. and amsoil at 6000 mile
intervals. like i said, no wiring damage and no codes.
