Bulletin Summary

Some customers may experience a buzzing or rattle noise when decelerating in 2nd or 3rd gear 2500-3500 RPM. This is caused when the vehicle decelerates, its weight, together with the pulses from the engine, excites the backlash in the transmission gears, causing them to buzz or rattle. Clearance between transmission gears (backlash) is normal and sometimes can become audible.

About Technical Service Bulletins

A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
