2024 RPM drop in 4th gear normal?

[blackrpr]

Hey guys,

New raptor owner here. Just checking to see if anyone else’s gen 3 does this RPM drop in 4th gear (every time I accelerate—not intermittent). Dealership says they don’t think it’s normal and opened a case with ford. I attached two short videos thx!

Pretty sure that's a torque converter lock up as every 24 I've driven and the one I own does it.

Yep, mine has that stutter, too.

Hadn't really heard it until I watched it today. Mine does it too.

Just the converter locking.

My 22 does the same. But mine doesn't do it in manual mode. Only does it in automatic

insignificant to me ...Strange dealer open a case and doesn't say it's "normal"

Wow! I learned something new today. I did not know the Torque Converter could lock in 4th to 7th. I knew it could in the overdrive gears (8-10), but good to also know it will in the lower gears!

Thanks!
