low range low gear no engine braking
Just bought 2008 4X4 sport 4.0 6Cyl Auto. 2007,00KM Every thing seemed to work as I tried High and Low range. Shifts fine in both high and low. O.D. switch works OK. Knew it had some mileage on it but runs great. When first trip off road ( logging roads ) mild grade downhill. Stopped and put in neutral and low range OD off and down shifted drive 2. some mild engine braking occurred. When speed increased rpms went to 1100 and stayed there while speed kept increasing no engine braking at this point. At 30km Stopped and put into first and gave a little gas to make sure in gear speed increased with no engine braking at all rpms went to 1100 and stayed and speed increased according to steepness of grade. Just like it was in neutral. Does this whether in high or low range only in first gear ( drive one ). Is there a coast mode ? I can repeat this any time on a downhill grade. Can this be torque converter related. as long as transmission is under load every thing seems to be OK. Sorry about being long winded. Had transmission fluid changed when I bought it. Thanks
