Sure they recognized it, there's a tsb out for it. If your dealer won't recognize it, then try another dealer. Unfortunately we are at the mercy of our dealers, competent or not, when our trucks need repairs. When I told mine of the issue, they told me about the tsb (which I already knew about from FTE) and said they'd get it fixed, to which they did. If you're getting nowhere with the dealer, escalate it to Ford customer relations.

Sorry blue, my comment was for the one a couple back from the other user. I'm on crappy internet on my Xoom at my kids school and the quote didn't pick up.
Anyways, your dealer sounds like they're trying to help you out so that's good. You should see if they'll let you run another SD for a couple days to see if it has similar issues.

Mine still shifting good. Problem is I was doing an oil change yesterday and I see I have transmission oil leaking. It was all over the bottom of the pan, cross member and up around the sides. Hopefully it is just the pan gasket. Level is still OK and it hasn't been bad enough to leave spots on my floor in the garage. I'll get it booked in and get them to look at it.

Well it looks like I posted that a bit too quick. I looked under the truck today and I see it is still leaking. I just got home from dropping the truck off at the dealers. They have it booked in for tomorrow.

The shop called and it turned out to be the seal on the output shaft where it joins onto the transfer case. The parts are supposed to arrive on Friday so when I come off shift Monday it looks like it will be ready to go.

Wow 4 months??? I should note that my truck only required a re-flash. No solenoids.

Dealer said they would call when the parts came in. That was
in August. I called dealer last week and was told parts had arrived.
Glad the flash solved the problem.
Fingers crossed.

.The good news is that it seems to have fixed the problem but I have noticed that my gas mileage is down about 1mpg from 12.9 TO 11.9 in stop and go driving. Has anyone else noticed this?

many trucks and they want me to bring in a copy of the TSB, which
seems odd. Glad to hear that the fix has solved your trans issue. I will
keep an eye on the gas mileage after todays visit to the trans doctor.
Thanks go to 2000Silverbullet and the others that posted the link
to the TSB.
Again, fingers crossed...

My transmission woes continue. I was hoping to pick up my truck today but the new seal didn't stop the leak. Ford has told them to try it again. They have another one in stock so it will be done tonight or tomorrow. Hopefully it works or they will have to go futher into it. I hope it is no something wrong with the shaft or the case causing it not to seal.
