2022 2500 Cummins w/ 68RFE trans a 35,888 miles on it.
Yesterday I was running around to a couple of different stores to get groceries. When leaving the last store, this very deep, low pitched drone picked up between 600-1100 rpms approximately. It was loud and almost felt like maybe a boot or fitting within the intake or exhaust went TU. I got home, got into the engine bay and under the truck and couldn't locate any obvious issue. I hooked up my OBD2 port scanner to see if there were any codes since the CEL wasn't on. It popped up with code P2701 Inadequate Element Volume 2C. It gave a few different potential issues with a stroking piston in the transmission that could become lodged in the stroked position and not disengaging or could be something to due with the valve body and a potential hydraulic leak. I'm set to go in tomorrow to drop it off and hit a couple other small warrant issues while it is there but I was curious if anyone has seen this code or hear about this issues. This is the first issue that has popped up with this truck and nothing tell tale or hinting that it was coming. Towed the fifth wheel over the pass and back last week but nothing arduous.
My gut says this happened because I finally installed some bronze overlays vinyl on the black ram badges that I ordered while waiting to receive my truck but who knows.....
