2010 4 speed tranny?
.. ok so my truck has the 4 speed tranny in it. It also says it has overdrive... now does this mean that 4th gear is o/d or does it actually have a 5th gear that is considered overdrive?
I guess it holds true... An aircraft mechanic works on million dollar aircraft's but can't fix his $150 lawnmower (or truck).

Hello.
4-speed auto: 4th gear IS OD. 3rd is a 1:1 ratio; 4th is 'overdriven' , a fractional ratio. like 0.67:1 - see yer owners manual for the exact ratio,
What you are feeling is the torque converter locking/unlocking - feels like a shift. Happens under certain TP positions/loads/road speeds/gear.

EDIT - corrected '2rd' to '3rd', lol

OD is 4th gear. It is a 0.7:1 ratio. You feel four shifts, 1-2, 2-3, and 3-4. The fourth shift that you feel is the torque converter lockup clutch engaging. That eliminates slip in the torque converter. It is not a different gear.
