I've noticed for about 2 weeks my truck has a noticeable clunk halfway through 3rd gear. I think it might be slipping. It happens under light or slightly heavier acceleration, whether the truck is warm or cold. This happens in regular driving mode and eco mode. When I shift manually, it feels fine. I am planning to call the dealer on Monday to get it in. Just curious if anyone else has anything similar going on. My truck has 1600 miles.

Does it happen all the time or just occasionally? I also experience this, but it's not any worse than other RWD vehicles I've had. It only occurs intermittently though.

Is it that dumb skip second gear deal? I read that this transmission is supposed to skip second gear under certain settings. I watch mine go from first to third all the time by hitting rhe button on the shifter before taking off
