I am experiencing very hard downshifts on my new F250. This started on about 3500 miles. No sign of trouble prior to then. Anyone had this problem?

Is it still under warranty? Have you worked out when or where it happens? If you can do that, it would be easier to take it back and take the service tech for a ride and show him.

It should be a simple and quick fix for the dealership. They will adjust your throttle valve pressure. Take's about 30 min.

The truck is under warranty. I carried it to dealer this morning. Thanks, Ricky.

You don't have it in tow haul mode by chance do you?

well crblocker,
what did the dealer find was the problem and what was the fix ?

The dealer reprogrammed my computer. Don't ask me to get any more specific than that. They did place a sticker under the hood and wrote "Reprogram P.C.M., T.C.M., and I.C.M. I have no idea what these are but the problem has gone away and I'm happy. Thanks.

well glad to hear it was a simple fix.
that seems to be a pretty common thing at the dealer anymore. (reprogram computer)
