“At freeway speeds my truck seems to pop in and out of passing gear. The tac momentairly jumps 200 to 400 RPM. Because it is of such a short duration and such a slight rise in RPM,I cannot tell if the truck jerks. However this started as something I noticed happening frequently on long trips. Now it is a continuous problem. The dealer as well as a transmission shop said the on board computer shows nothing. They did replace the EGR valve ?? I would appreciate it if anyone else who has had this problem would post it on this site.”
