First post, forgive me if this has been covered.
My friend and I are getting into Camper Vans.
He bought a 2008 2500 Dodge Sprinter, 3.0 V6 Diesel-5 Speed Auto, 2WD.
Upon driving it home he felt a shutter at around 70-75 and a bit of RPM flutter. We have since heard this is a torque converter issue.
He took it to the local Dodge dealership and they want to replace transmission, torque converter and trans cooler. This I know is a true sign of laziness and price gouging, as this is unneeded.
Can anyone recommend a shop on the west coast that replaces transmissions/torque con and does the hot flush on cooler?
He isn't looking to spend as much money as the dealer wants to steal from him. He is also looking for a warranty. I know about Silver Star, but would also like some full service options somewhere near Central California.
Thank you kindly all!
By the way, we are MOPAR guys that get alot from our Classic Mopar forums. We love to crowd source advice from those on our same path. Thank you for your service.
