the only other thing i can say for sure is that my transmission had plugs in where the speed sensor(s) went, the tranny from the 03 had i think 2 sensors. im pretty confident this isnt a problem since my truck wouldnt have the wiring etc for those sensors anyway?
any input or questions would be appreciated.
sorry if this is a duplicate but i tried to send a reply and it sorta just hung there. i ended up swapping my fried tranny for one that came out of an 03 super duty. seems to be working right, but i only drove it home and havent driven it since because i have a seized caliper now (never rains it pours). im hoping that my concerns will turn out to be nothing but i still have some concerns. just before my transmission quit, i noticed it taking longer to shift into forward than usual. this could be because i plow snow with my truck... i dont know. it seemed to be fine when i first fired it up in the mornings, but it wasnt long after i noticed the time it took to shift into forward that it quit completely.
however i read in another post you commented on that a couple seconds can be normal. im very curious only because of the problems i encountered after mine started taking those 2 seconds to shift. from 1-2 2-3 and 3-4 this transmission seems normal.
Mark,
When you get a chance, could you please reply to my post? The title is 6.4l transmission searching for gears because of DPFR+4.0? The post is on the first page of the 6.4l diesel forum. I appreciate your time and any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks alot.
Sorry, here is my question!
Had a Ford dealer tell me my 2008 Mountaineer needed a transmission rebuild at a cost of $3,400.00. For this diagnosis I was charged $99.00. A second opinion from an independent transmission repair service my transmission was repair by "Shift/Torque" relearn technique and runs as new. Is this remedy permanent and if so should I be reimbursed by the dealer for the $99.00 (misdiagnose) fee?
Mark, just posted a question on Ford Truck Enthusiasts concerning Torqushift Shift Relearning Strategy. I'd appreciate your answer. FKAugusta (AKA Frank) fkaugusta@aol.com
Wondering if you can direct me a bit. 2004 ford Freestar, 4.2L, 220,000 KM (136,000 mi) on it. Ford sent me a recall notice about the torque converter. Had the warranty/recall work done. we got the car back and the shifting felt different right away. A zinging sound after the shift occurred, late shifting, lurching. Main seal started leaking immediately as well, so the dealer fixed that. We had a bad coil pack at the same time so the other symptoms were blamed on that. Coil pack was fixed, engine ran smooth but problems persisted. Now the dealer tells us that the symptoms are a defective transmission. I told them it was a very strange coincidence that the trans would fail at the same time as their work. (I understand it could happen with a vehicle this old) Their answer to me is: the new torque Converter and new fluid put "pressure" (their words) on the old trans and caused it to fail/not work properly/ produce the symptoms. Is this possible?
Hey mr.kovalsky. I have a 08 f250 6.4 thats been getting stuck in 4th gear and it has a weird shift 3-4 and sometimes wont go to 5th and when it does it downshifts hard but stays in 5th. Its finally thrown 2 codes a p-0766 and p-2703. And then sometimes it drives just fine. What are your opinions? Is it just solenoid d or is my trans fried? Thank you sir!
Hi Mark, you seem to be the resident tranny expert here..
ive been looking around for a couple months for a replacement transmission for my truck. I have 99 f250 Superduty with the 5.4, 4x4. called ford and they tell me i have e40d/4r100. i cant afford a rebuild as much as i should have that done, so instead im looking for a used one at a wreckers. ive run into a slight snag in finding out if the tranny out of a 6.8l will fit in the same as the 5.4 as far as i know they are the same transmission, but ford cant confirm without vin number lookups. any info you might have would be a benefit. thanks
Hey mark, tony "05excursionman" here, is there any more tests you think I should run on my X before I tackle the rebuild? Any advice would be great.
Thanks,
Tony Conrad
