WHEN ACCELERATING IN LOW GEARS, THERE IS A LOUD FAN NOISE. LOSS OF POWER, AND A VERY HIGH REVVING ENGINE JUST BEFORE SHIFTING TO NEXT HIGHER GEAR. WHEN FINALLY REACH 40 MPH OR SO, REVVING GOES DOWN BUT VERY LOAD FAN/ENGINE NOISE IS STILL THERE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. THE LATEST WAS 09/21. THE FIRST WAS ON 08/06 ON THE INTERSTATE IN TENNESSEE. JUST PURCHASED VAN IN MID AUGUST. ONLY 1200 MILES ON IT. TAKING IT TO DEALER TOMORROW BUT THEY DON'T BELIEVE ME THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG. WORRIED THAT IT WILL DAMAGE ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION AND LEAVE ME STRANDED SOMEWHERE.
WE BOUGHT YOUR NV 3500 SL V8 LESS THAN TWO WEEKS AGO. AFTER DRIVING IT A FEW HUNDRED MILES (MOSTLY HIGHWAY) THE ENGINE BECAME EXTREMELY NOISY, WITH A REVVING SOUND, AND IT ACTED AS IF IT WAS IN NEUTRAL. IT CONTINUED TO SOUND LIKE AN AIRPLANE ATTEMPTING TO TAKE OFF, AND IT WAS SLUGGISH WITH SHIFTING WITH SIMPLE ACCELERATION AND EVEN WITH DECELERATION. THIS LOUD NOISE IS WORSE IF THE AC IS ON. IT WILL SOMETIMES COMPLETELY STOP AFTER HAVING THE CAR OFF FOR A WHILE. BUT SOME DAYS IT IS ROARING IMMEDIATELY WHEN THE VAN IS STARTED IN THE MORNING.
WHILE DRIVING, WITHOUT NOTICE OR WARNING THE ENGINE WILL REV AND GET VERY LOUD AND RPM'S WILL MAX OUT. THE CAR WILL LOSE POWER AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE OR SHIFT GEARS FOR A SIGNIFICANT DELAY.
WHEN ACCELERATING, THERE IS A LOUD REVVING SOUND AND A NOTICEABLE LOSS OF POWER. THE VAN RUNS AT VERY HIGH RPMS AND ACTS LIKE IT CAN'T SHIFT OUT OF GEAR. SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO HAVING THE AIR CONDITIONER ON AT THIS POINT.
