Transmission doesn't like shifting
Hey guys. Today after leaving the convenience store my transmission started acting funny. It doesn't want to shift out of first gear, I have to get the rpms over 2500 and basically leave it their for a while before it will finally shift. Once out of first it seems like it shifts fine. While in first gear I also notice some noise comming from underneath, almost like a pinging sound. Once out of first it goes away. My Excursion is a 2001 7.3 with 198k miles. 4" exhaust, and Predator Diablo tuner always set to 60hp economy. I reset the pcm back to stock to see if that would make a difference and it did not. I checked the fluid when I got home and it was normal. Please tell me my tranni isnt toast.

Why the output speed sensor? I can't see how that could cause this problem. Why would the sensor only cause a 1-2 shift problem? If it were bad how does it fix itself after the 1-2?
The problem is a failed mechanical diode. That's a type of one way clutch inside the transmission. Unfortunately it means it is rebuild time.

So how many of these ticking time bombs are there out there?
