Transmission (68RE) "shudder"

[cooperns1943]

While on vacation we were towing our 35ft 5th wheel with our 2015 Ram 2500 when we experienced a "shudder" between 2nd and 3rd gears. We
were traveling at approx. 15-30 mpr. There also seems to be a long delay in shifts between 2nd , 3rd, and 4th gears. Have any of you experienced
this and is there a fix available?

Something sounds amiss there.. I have never had any "shudder" or delay between gears on my 68RFE even with my 40' 5er.

I assume you are still under warranty? Might wanna have it checked out.

Yep, sounds like something's amiss. I never had any shudder problems with my 2011 3500 DRW towing either our previous 16K GVWR or our current 19K GVWR 5th wheels. That's what the 5/100 powertrain warranty is for. I'd get it checked out.

So, what did you find out?!?
