Not sure how to describe this for a proper search, so I'll post up and see what y'all think.
While driving along at moderate speed 30-50mph on a road that undulates, if I take my foot off the gas and then reapply to build speed back, the tranny will cause the engine speed to over-rev 250-500 rpm before it kicks down to the proper gear. It's difficult to explain, but it's almost as if the engine tries to drop from OD to 3rd for a brief second and then falls back into OD.
It's not really a problem, just kinda strange when you're driving along and the engine speed briefly jumps before settling down.
Ugh, sorry this isn't a good explanation... that said, my 97 Sport 4x2 did this also and I could never figure it out. The above is my currend Cherokee, a 99 4x4, AW4, 231, DD w/ 91k on the clock.
thanks
