Torque Shift, Slow reverse
I have a 2004 F250 6.0 PSD with 25,000 mile on it, i love the truck it runs great but i am have a problem with a long delay going from drive to reverse. When plowing and the transmission is at running temp. Their seems to be a 20 sec delay when going it to reverse. When i shift in to reverse and hit the gas nothing happens until reverse locks in like some kind of interlock that dose not allow the engine to accelerate until reverse locks in, when it dose lock in it then suddenly accelerates to the position of the accelerater pedal. I took it to the dealer and they said they computer tested the tranny and it was fine, then they alse said they reprogramed the computer to fix the problem, well the problem is not fix, Anyone else haveing this problem.

Look for posts here about the Tranny planetary gear problems people are having. Especially those that plow. Ford has a recall out on it.
IT sounds like you have that problem. There is a pin in the planetary that backs out until the point you have tranny failure.
Check with your dealer about this. It a lot easier for them to repair now and you will get your truck back a lot sooner rather than keep driving until the tranny goes and then a complete rebuild will be needed.

There is aTSB on this and it is 04B24. This has to do with a low/reverse gear set pinion shaft(s) that may become loose, causing metallic particle contamination. They say it may lead to harsh/slipping shifts and/or harsh/delayed forward/reverse engagements. I didn't have the problem but didn't want to wait to have the problem before taking it in so I took it in and just told them I am having delayed shifts into reversed. I got my truck back the next day and the TSB also states that they authorize the dealer to issue you a rental. Don't be suprised when you give your baby to them and get something like a focus in return though. LOL.
