Here's something I've noticed happen a couple times on my '06 600...
When upshifting into sixth, sometimes it doesn't actually go into gear, but rather acts like it's in neutral. Today, I upshifted as I was leveling off my speed in traffic, so I didn't even notice I wasn't in gear until rolled I back on the throttle a bit and didn't feel the usual engine braking. Shifting into sixth at that point results in a nasty crunching noise, and then it's OK.
So, for you mechanically inclined, what exactly is going on here and how is it happening, so I can avoid it??
Thanks!
