Question---have a 2011 JGC with 31,000 miles and auto trans. Lately it seems that when you take your foot off the accelerator it seems to be slowing down by itself pretty significantly. Its almost like having a stick and dropping it into a lower gear and slowing down that way. Any suggestions? Thanks all in advance for your help
Just got it back from the dealer. The code was a p0730 - incorrect gear ratio. They did a transmission service on it and couldn't recreate the problem. All covered under warranty. They suspect the fluid was a little low.
richp, when yours slowed down was it significant or subtle? It seems that mine is doing this as well, but it is pretty subtle. I can not figure out if it is a function of the 5 speed trans or if there is a real problem. I expect if I take it into the dealer they will not find anything.
OK thanks for the info. Mine seems very minor and does not happen all the time. Mostly during stop and go traffic with the trans is being put under more stress. My guess if there was another gear in the trans it would be a little smoother, but it is something I can deal with unless it gets worse or the check engine light comes on again.
