I have 135,000 on my 5.9L diesel and my automatic transmition has started slipping all the way through 2nd gear. Is it time for a rebuild or something else i could try?

i aint sure what automatics they use with cummins engines, but if its a chrysler tranny you should either rebuild(not just to stock specs.) or trash and get an allison.

Dont go to chrysler to have it fixed. U need to contact http://www.dieseltrans.com/dodge/transmission_components.htm and ask them for the closet dealer to u. I belive he is right north of denton. James nothern or somthing like that. U wont ever have a problem. Ur clutches are shot. chrylser reman wont last. Money better spent on an aftermarket one.

As time goes by that slipping will get bad enough the truck will barely move. Right now you are losing power and mpg w/ that convertor. I work for Cummins, and my service truck and personal truck both require a new converter every 80k miles and a trans rebuild at about 120k miles. The trans are the weak spot. It is best to go to a reputable diesel shop that does transmissions. Have them install an aftermarket torque converter. The $$$ you save will allow you to upgrade the trans to the point it will never blow again.

86k and my torque just failed. the pump drive stub shaft broke. all the disc looked ok nothing burned up. it will cost me about 750 to repair. That's doing it my self. You would think they would last longer than that.

if your slipping in second you need a rebuild i will cost you abit. but you can get a ats performance trans for a little bit more money and it will last forever and will also support power addons to your engine with out tearing the trans up like a stock tranny. i would go ats with a ats torque converter you will have less problems and more towing power better shifts and higher torque converter lockup.

I had the same prob in my 05' 2500 @ about 120,000 for 75.00 I took it to a local tranny shop and had the fluid and filter changed and bands adjusted now it works great.
