Asked by SCRE4sale Jun 16, 2016 at 05:29 PM about the 2004 Chrysler Sebring LX Convertible FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I've got a 2004 Chrysler Sebring Convertible (2.7 V6) with about 130,000 miles
on it. The car shifts fine, but when I slow down and it downshifts at about 25
mph there is a significant bump. I changed the filter, replaced the ATF with +4,
and replaced the speed sensors, but it's still happening. Any thoughts?

I went to a tranny shop. The owner attached the code reader and programmed the code reader to "relearn" the shifting. Within two minutes, the bump was gone.
