Question about downshift hesitation
My 2006 Lariat seems to be slightly hesitating when automatically downshifting, but only at certain times. For example, if I am slowing down off of an interstate exit and put my foot on the gas to accelerate, there is a slight hesitation when the transmission drops into a lower gear to accelerate more rapidly. Nothing slips. It seems to be consistent from shifts b/w 4 and 3 only.
Anyone know if this is normal operation? Thanks in advance for the input

My 04 lariat is doing the same exact thing. I had the fluid flushed at the dealer, no change. Had the plugs and coils looked at and tested, looked fine. Mechanic could not replicate. Gonna try the synthetic route and gear oil replacement and see if that helps. Also take a look at the MAF sensor. Gonna clean it this weekend. Good luck.

Good luck with your '04. Let me know if you find anything out.
