Had to put truck in for service 2 weeks ago. I have a 2002 3500 4x4 cc 8.1 ZF6 6 speed 4.10 rear .  Here the problme when shifting gears between 2 and 3 engine would rev to 3000 rpm for about 10 to 15 sec when clutch was engaged Then would be ok for a short time. this is what dealer came up with. scan system for codes,no codes, no bulletins or pts. tech drove home several nights, condition would occur 1 time going home and sometimes 1 time back, called tech assist, told to disconnect battery overnight reconnect and drive , drive home 2 more nights after doing so condition did not aeoccur.according to enginer, may have beenlugging engine insted of downingshifting and computer learned saver condition and is the way it is beins driven, spoke to tech assist again after condition didnt reoccur, nothing more we can do closed case .if anybody else had this happen let me know . had truck 10 days still not sure it is fixed has not happend sence i got it back.         arm40

I guess I'm a little confused, is this before you shift or after you've shifted and let the clutch out?  If it's after, it could simply be clutch slippage which won't show up with a code.

no when you have the clutch to the floor shift from 2 to 3 . you go to 3 just before you lut the clutch out will rev to 3000 rpm for 15 to 30 sec then it will go back to about 600 rpm. then you can let clutch out. this is what dealer told me tonight. idle at 1500 or so is normal (called sail on anybody know what this is) have pictures you can go look at bfore runningboards put on here is the sight http://www.picturetrail.com/Roozers

    • The oil filter has NOTHING To do with oil leak. GM sources parts from 1,000's of vendors and as with anything mass produced, flaws are unavoidable.    Putting a larger oil filter will do nothing but satisfy emotions. The OEM filter is designed for the engine and perfectly capable of handling the demands on the engine. Oversize oil filter could result in reduced flow and overall lower oil pressure.
    • You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling. 
    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
