I hae a 2002 Tundra extended cab with the V6 with 55,000 miles. I purchased it new and for the first couple of years I towed a small bass boat in Oklahoma (very flat). Anyway, just a couple of weeks ago the transmission began slipping. When excelerating from a stop it there will sometimes be a loud banging noise when it shifts to a lower gear.
It does not happen all the time and it seems to happen more often when the truck is cold. Transmission fluid level was fine, but since it had never been changed, I had a local shop drain and refill the transmission and for good measure, the coolant.
Any ideas on what could be the cause? Someone suggested it could be in the rear, not the transmission. I was just hoping for some direction here. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
