    shaking? Is your splitter in low range when backing?

    Im assuming you have an autoshift and the ca your seeing stands for clutch abuse and means your clutch is getting hot. Just have to sit long enough to let it cool off.

    Where do you get a CA code? Codes are usually two digit numbers. CA?? CAC is the Charge Air Cooler

    Is it the engine bucking or the truck shaking only when your moving backwards??

    They had the drive shaft out. There could be something wrong with the driveline like a Ujoint.

    Thats correct, but something has to be wrong, because its happening every time I put shifter in reverse.
    And as I sad clutch is new.
    Im also changed injector 4 and the guys from freightliner assuming the engine timing is bad( I did over haul , month ago). But whenever I ask about clutch they dont tell me nothing

    Not that it matters now since you totaled you truck, but if its not bucking and shaking, it probably is a bad electronic sensor and not mechanical. Does it grind at all?

    I'm having the same issue, and my companies mechanic has never seen it before. Did you ever find out what it was?
