04 Tacoma Dbl Cab Shifter

Mar 11, 2005 3 Replies

Anybody having problems with their automatic tranny shifter shifting hard? It doesn't happen all the time but it seems to be happening more lately. It's mostly happening when I'm shifting up to park from drive thru reverse into park. You can actually see the cover over the shifter lifting up a little too. Have an appointment with the dealer Monday and getting the 5k service done at the same time. It's dissapointing to be having problems already with it at such a low milage vehicle. Hell didn't have problems with my POS VW Jetta until 30k!! Any insight is appreciated......

I am having similar problems w/ my 04 Double Cab TRD. When it's cold, it revs pretty high b4 it shifts, and shifts hard. I also notice the shifter moving aound during acceleraltion and deceleration.

Let me know what you find out.

No problem, I'll post what happened tomorrow night. My shifter has always moved when accelerating and decelerating. I have several friends with basically the same truck at work and they say it moves for them too so I assume that's normal. None of them have had the problems I've encountered with it actually hanging up while moving the shifter though.

Well of course the damn shifter wasn't doing it today so I'll have to wait till it's doing it on a regular basis I guess before they can figure out what's wrong. Sorry I couldn't help you out Mike......
