rough shifting? 2021

cmon is my transmition shifting rough or am i a spazz? about to hit 6k mi. its pretty much been this way since the day i bought it. i want to say that the motor mounts or tranny mounts are not rigid enough.

 

Sounds like you should have the Toyota dealer look at it so they can tell you it's normal and that you are a spazz.

Or maybe you're not a spazz and they will fix it for you

 

It's fine

 

Rough shifting? Exactly how so? Auto shifting or manually? What RPM's? Upshifting or downshifting?

 

Toyota will tell you that you're a spazz even if it is busted af, lol.

Probably nothing, though. Test drive a new 4Runner and compare?

I wouldn't say mine is rough, but it isn't a luxury car, either. It shifts like a Toyota truck.

 

Mine has a slight lag with solid/firm engagement when down shifting manually. I'd prefer to have no lag, but like that the engagement is solid/firm.

 

i really think the motor and tranny mounts are too spongy.

 

Are aftermarket alternatives available for the 4Runner?

 

Seems there's a chip for everything these days. Not for me in this instance since shift timing means very little. Now, if was meant for running twisties....different story.

 

Sorry, I was referring to the mounts. Although, I personally wouldn't be interested in either. Hopefully Toyota designed the shifting and mounts together to provide longevity and reliability. That's primarily what I purchased the 4Runner for.

 

Haven't looked at the mounts. Are they running jelly mounts?

 

so with 960 pounds or mortar in the back the thing shifts like butter. interesting observation. speak on this.....
