The 68RFE Transmission is a popular choice among Dodge enthusiasts and professionals alike. Known for its robust design and versatility, the 68RFE transmission is often found in high-performance vehicles and heavy-duty applications. However, like any mechanical component, it has its share of common problems that users should be aware of.
Common Problems with 68RFE Transmissions
Torque Converter Issues: One of the most common problems with the 68RFE transmission is related to the torque converter. Drivers often report shuddering or vibration during acceleration, which can be indicative of a failing torque converter.
Solenoid Failure: The 68RFE transmission relies on solenoids to regulate the flow of transmission fluid. When these solenoids fail, it can result in erratic shifting or a complete inability to shift gears.
Overheating: Like many high-performance transmissions, the 68RFE transmission can suffer from overheating issues, especially under heavy load conditions. This can lead to a breakdown of the transmission fluid, resulting in poor lubrication and increased wear and tear on internal components.
Slipping: Another common issue is gear slippage, where the transmission unexpectedly shifts out of gear or fails to engage properly. This can be particularly dangerous and is often a sign of internal damage or wear.
Leaking: Leaks are another frequent problem with the 68RFE transmission. These leaks can occur at the pan gasket, seals, or cooler lines, leading to low fluid levels and subsequent transmission damage.
