transmission

Just looking to see how common this is on the Sprinter chassis. I have a Thor FE24 on 2016 Sprinter 3500 chassis. It has 65000 miles on the odometer. Several months ago we were travelling in New Hampshire (state routes, not interstates) and we started to experience two concerning sounds...

FYI, new Allison transmissions go into neutral when you stop at a light. When you release the brake after stopping at a light there is about a 3 second delay before the coach will start rolling. If you press the gas beforehand the coach will jerk forward because you are now ramming it into gear...

I have a 2011 Winnebago Adventurer 32h with a Chevy W22 chassis and Allison 6 speed transmission with 66,000 miles expended. The transmission had a complete service at 25k and 49k though each time told it was not necessary, but I like to meticulously perform preventive maintenance. This week...

Hello. I am looking for a replacement transmission cable for my Southwind 32V. In looking thru posts regarding this it seems Ford discontinued this part several years ago. My cable did not break but the outer housing melted because the rocket science folks at Ford ran it to close to exhaust...

I have a 1998 Newmar Dutchstar XC chassis with a Cat3216band Allison MD3060 transmission. I have discovered I have a rather messy transmission fluid leak. So messy, in fact, that I'm having a difficult time finding it because everything is covered in trans fluid. I'm losing about a quart...

My daughter is looking for a tow vehicle that can pull a 3200lb GVRW trailer. She really likes the Subaru Ascent, as it will be her everyday driver. However, it has the CVT. I know that doesn't rule out towing with it, but what are realistic thoughts on towing with a vehicle that has the...

Hello Everyone, I just returned from my summer trip of 5,000 miles from Wyoming back to Florida. I have a 2012 Tiffin 34 TGA V10 with a 5-speed turbo-shift transmission. My RV turned 100,000 miles on the way home. It ran great except for one minor thing. I use a Scan gauge to monitor engine...

2024 chevy 2500 6.6 with 10 speed Alisson. Left Branson MO heading south into Arkansas and hit some 7% grades with many sharp turns. Camper probably weighed about 8k loaded. Pulled well and thought braking worked well with gain set at 6. Was told should be running in tow/haul mode any time road...

Hi. I know the UFO chassis is popularly known for having issue with the wabsco brake system. I really like this set up with the push button Allison transmission. And I notice some workhorse 07-08 have this set up with front engine with the same parking brake type. Does it have the same...

Every time I start on a trip my coach goes into limp mode. I did a diagnose on the shift panel and P0894 came up. The last three times this happened I have turned off the engine and restarted it a couple of times and it drove fine. The transmission is not slipping, it shifts fine, the fluid does...

I had my shift by wire ACT 701-01 freeze in drive. I ended up using a 3/16 Allen wrench to move the actuator to neutral in order to start the unit to get it home. . I had Freightliner provide a replacement ( SBW ACT 3001), installed on the unit and when I turned on the key the NN on the display...

I have a 2001 XL2900FB, V-10. Have had it in storage for about 4 years, am rehabbing and getting it ready to travel around Thanksgiving. I want to change the oils myself. Can someone please help me with the capacities? Thanks! Terry

I serviced my transmission an Allison 3000. How do I reset dash monitor?

Visited the Hershey show Thursday to review trailers and motorhomes with the possible thought of getting a newer unit. Have had trailers, fifth wheels and motorhomes and have enjoyed all. Left show with the feeling that most of today's offerings are built subpar compared to our 2004 Allegro. At...

I have a 2002 Monaco Diplomat, and it won't start because the transmission is not in neutral. It is a 6 speed Allison that has somehow gone into "mode" while sitting for over 6 months. Local Allison dealer won't even come look at it because he has no mobile service. Because of the RV Park we...

Good day all. Just became a member. Glad to be here. My question. “Is a 6R140 tranny the same on a F53 as a F550”? Thanks for the reply’s.

I’m the owner of a 2000 Fleetwood Summer Wind. It’s on a ford F53 chassis. The issue is a stiff shift cable. No where to really lubricate. Tried. I’m at a loss to find the transmission shift cable replacement. It’s obsolete by ford and have read it doesn’t exist anywhere. Find that hard to...

Hello, I have a 2005 Damon Astoria with a 5.9 ISB / 5 speed allison trans. After driving for 30 minutes, my check trans light comes on and I can no longer get 5th gear. After restarting, the fault clears and I'm good for another 30 minutes before it kicks back on again. My scanner says FMI...

My 05 Alpine 40fdts runs 9-10 degrees hotter than the radiator. Coolant 203 transmission 212. If I get caught at lights it creeps up as high as 230. I'm terrible with the search function on Irv2, is there a method to clean the coolers in place? Jim

2015 Tiffin 33AA. Selector panel does not light up when starting. Fuses have been changed. Now coach won’t start. Displays a CODE J 1939, NO DATA. Thank you to anyone with any knowledge. Tiffin closed over 4th as it should be. But never fails something happens of this magnitude on holiday...

I've got a 2023 Winnebago Travato 59GL (Ram Promaster chassis) with the 9 speed 62TE automatic transmission. I've never noticed it shift any higher than 7th gear even when I've attempted to manually select 8th or 9th gear on an interstate downhill with no real load on the engine. 7th gear seems...

I've got a 2023 Travato 59GL with the 9 speed 62TE automatic transmission. I've never noticed it shift any higher than 7th gear even when I've attempted to manually select 8th or 9th gear on an interstate downhill with no real load on the engine. 7th gear seems to be plenty tall enough for any...

On the 4R100 transmission, which cooler line is the “output” and which one the “return” line? Thanks

I have a 2008 Monaco Cayman. I am getting a check trans light and would like to read the code. The method of pressing the up and down arrows together on the shifter does not work on my rig. A few years ago when this happened, a poster referenced one of the older Monaco owner's manual, which...
