Hello All,
New to the group and the Taco family.
I bought a 2005 Tacoma back in April of this year. The Taco has 9000 miles on it and appears to be running great. The truck has the 6cyc 6 speed tranny extended cab with the 6' bed and off road package.
I guess over the last 2 - 3 weeks on my way home from work on the hi-way the tranny was slipping out of gear. I noticed it more in 4th and 5th gear and at times in 6th gear. The stick just comes out of gear and goes into neutral. I have been monitoring this activity but there appears to be no rhyme or reason as too why this happens. It's purely random. What I have done during shifting is that I make sure that I am in gear before I come off the clutch and the problem still persists.
Has anyone out there heard or have had this happen to them? I'm trying to re-produce this issue so that when I take the truck to the dealer they fix it, but I have not been succesful.
Question: Are there adjustments that can be made to prevent this? OR do I have to wait until this problem just breaks for good?
TIA, Paul
