'03 Dodge Ram automatic "noise"

HD in NY 25 April 2005 05:57:01
 Has anyone had a problem with the automatic used with the
Hemi engine? By that I mean a failure of any sort. Mine has
a sound I can best describe as sounding like a valve opening
and closing rapidly. Happens when the transmission is close
to a downshift but not quite ready to do so. I've been
assured by the service department it's common and not a
cause for worry. It happens in 3rd, 4th and 5th.

Judging by the lack of responses, I guess no one has had any
failures. Has anyone else experienced the same noise from
this transmission then?

 I had a '05 Hemi Durango rental for a week last month. I didn't notice any
transmission noises.

I've got an '04 Hemi automatic and I haven't heard any tranny noises. Sorry
I couldn't be more help.

Thanks. I'm told that the '03 transmission does this but
doesn't cause any harm. Since I questioned the service
department about the noise, maybe I'm covered. I also tow a
30' trailer with it and it does it either towing or solo.It
also unlocks and locks several times while towing and going
up a slight grade (like overpasses). This with the OD locked
out. This also is "normal" as per the Chryco Service Manager.

 I've got the '03 with Hemi and auto: Haven't noticed the noise. I also pull
a 28' trailer and haven't noticed it unlocking and locking (I assume you
mean some sort of "hunting" type feeling) Unless i forget to lock out the
OD.

Sorry I forgot to thank you for your response. One quick
note on the unlocking. It only does it with OD locked out.
If I leave it in OD, the transmission will shift from 5th
lockup to 3rd unlocked on a grade. This is with cruise on
and engaged.

Thanks. I've got to get the oil and filter changed again
soon. Guess I'm going to have to pursue this again with the
Service Manager. I've checked to see if there was a computer
update for it but haven't found any. The noise isn't real
loud but is annoying, plus any noise from a transmission or
engine is cause for concern.

Wish Mike S. would chip in on this.
