The auto trannys are the weak link in our duty's.
A place called BTS (Brians truck Shop )in texas I believe builds the toughest tranny you can get for Superduty's.

It is my understanding that "limp mode" should reveal error codes. Also, the shift lever where you can take the over drive off...should either be blinking or "On" all the time.

When they hook the computer to your truck...that will give them a better understanding.

Good luck with your extended warranty. If it is a third party like mine...it may take some time to get it all approved.

extended warrenty? hope you don't have a hard time with a lifted and exhaust changed truck. every one i've delt with is looking for a way out of paying or wants a fix whats broken only deal.
check in to it very closely. if it not from ford it's basicly junk.

captchas -- You are RIGHT on the MONEY! Third party warranties are JUNK...they pull the old "pre-existing condition" on everything that the warranty is supposed to cover.

I fell for it...just call me gullible!

i just had to deal with it to many times. the adjuster comes and looks has a check off list of whats modified to look for. checks it off and says void we are not paying.
i truely feel for every one that fell for one off the aftermarket bs ones. just a very costly piece of worth nothing paper.
if you buy a ford or what ever make sure that warrenty come directly from that company no one else.
