New filter, refilled with 2 gallons and 3 quarts of fluid. Old fluid had a slight brown tint but the pan was very clean.
Shudder problem is improved but not cured. As much fluid as this system holds, do I need more than one tube of the Dr. Tranny's Shudder Fix? There was no dilution info on the package.
jdemaris: when you say "limp-in" mode, I assume you mean like a gasser that locks into 2nd gear when it has a trans issue? I haven't wrenched on diesels much and want to be sure I'm understanding what you mean. Because no, it doesn't do that. It definitely runs through all the gears. I haven't had time yet to investigate the FIPL switch that you mentioned.
Now, here's the interesting part: it doesn't do it all the time. Under light throttle, it's a light, long shudder; stops as soon as you let up on the gas even a tiny bit. Under heavy throttle, it's a sharper but much shorter shudder that usually stops without letting up on the pedal. And sometimes, under light or heavy throttle, it doesn't do it at all. So...what's the magic answer?
This truck runs great, would really like to solve the trans problem.
Thanks to all, your time and assistance is appreciated.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
