Hey all
I have a 2018 F150 V6 ecoboost with 10spd transmission. I bought it with 15k miles and it now has 21k. I have noticed the truck jerks or shudders slightly when driving especially when its colder accompanied with a metallic trilling noise coming from under (I think) the truck, so I'm assuming tranny. The noise goes away, for the most part, after it warms up, but the noise is still present during acceleration. The jerking is always present, though at slower speeds. My question; is this a common issue with these new 10 speed transmissions? Could this be caused by a faulty turbo if not the tranny? I have had a noisy turbo wastegate in a different car, maybe this is turbo related too? I ask so I can be prepared when I take it to the dealer and get the typical "nothing wrong" response. Im uploading a recording of the noise it makes when starting. Not the best quality though.
Thanks all
Dave

yeah there was way too much background noise there.

A lot of people have mentioned the jerky 10 speed tranny (I have a 6 speed so do not have the issue). Seems there is a computer flash to fix it at the dealership. Most I have read about have commented on it being super smooth after they had the flash done.

My truck was bult after May 2018, so the TSB doesnt apply and my trans is still rough/jerky at times. Im crossing my fingers for a newer update for those of us still experiencing it. If your truck was built before May 2018, you should have the TSB applied.
