3rd gear issue

When transmission shifts into 3rd gear and is in low rpms in seems to have a subtle "lulling and catching" type issue.  not really slipping but a back and forth power loss and return sensation.  I can accelerate out of that rpm zone and all seems fine and shifts continue to work well otherwise???????

Does this describe your issue?

While coasting at 40-50mph, slightly touching the gas pedal causes a “bump” of forward movement and then letting off the gas again, the same little “bump” but now it’s almost like engine braking with a manual transmission.

my truck has this "hunting " in certain rpms whereby torque convetor locks and unlocks.  it kind of feels like that.   required power then less then back again repeatedly unless i move it out of that rpm range( low rpm in third under load).  i had a similar issue in my previa , turned out to be tps harness had knicked wire.
