Hi Keep this in mind. When the clutch fan and or waterpump starts to fail on this ford. It will make a loud!! Winding noise and will also make the transmission shift weirdly. I just had this happened and i thought i needed to service my tranee. After replacing the failed clutch fan and waterpump. (ALWAYS REPLACE THEM TOGETHER as they rely heavily on each other. Now the vehicle runs like a champ. No more loud noise and funny shifting. Your info in this video is also very helpful. You can still drive if the clutch fan fails but youll hear that loud noise

Very likely the reverse servo, if you are handy enough, you could probably fix it yourself, or at least verify it. Yes the vehicle will still have 1st gear with a bad servo because first drum is held by a sprag. Peck around KZbin a bit, I'm certain someone has tackled the reverse servo

@mark_osborne3 жыл бұрын
3rd gear happens to be the one gear that doesn't rely on a servo, and if it's truly slipping, it's likely a problem with the 3rd gear clutch itself. A solenoid either works or it doesn't, so not likely a solenoid pack. If the valve body is loose, it can also cause that, but pretty rare (I'd say) . In the case of a slipping clutch, the computer will know because the speed sensors will be reporting incorrect data, and set a trouble code.

@mark_osborne2 жыл бұрын
Most of the time it's the 2-5 servo that's gone bad. Sometimes you can fix it without pulling the trans. Sometimes the case needs a bushing installed in the hole where the servo shaft resides. Sometimes you can just get away with replacing the servo even if the hole is worn a little and it will run for a long time. But because you have 2nd, that may not be the problem. Are you sure you have 2nd? It's easy to miss.

I'd look for a used transmission. Have someone install it. Swapping a transmission in a 2 WD Explorer shouldn't cost more than $400 in labor unless the exhaust system is somehow in the way, and that is possible being a Ford. Even if they have to cut the exhaust and drop the Y-Pipe, $600 would be about right for labor. You should be able to find a good used transmission in the $5-700 range. If you reply with your location, I can run a search to see if there are any in your area.

@@mark_osborne I just took my 2003 explorer 4.0 v6 to get a transmission filter change too someone I know I think it's the five speed one. He said you can't get them rebuild, no shop will touch them, the only way is to get a remanufactured transmission. I was just asking because I get mixed information all the time. I should just call the dealer like you said or a transmission rebuild shop

@@Jerry-me1fy Just so ya know, I rebuilt one a few years ago and I'm not even a transmission guy :-) They are nothing more than an A4LD with upgraded parts and electronic valve body and a software change to get you 5 gears instead of 4

It probably "is" a missfire - doubt that it's transmission related

i have an 06 it runs and shifts forward but no reverse... i only have 92k on it
@mark_osborne3 жыл бұрын
Sadly I don't believe it's going to be something as simple as a solenoid pack. Reverse is controlled by the manual valve that is directly connected to the gear shift. You are mechanically directing the valve body to send fluid to the appropriate clutches to give you reverse.

For me it feals like a studdering and I have to let off the gas for to let it shift into 3rd. I also have most 150k issues for this model I'm working to fix. Thankfully parts are cheap 😉.

Currently, we need the transmission upgraded (stock one sucks) rear diff beads rebuild. Suspension is being redone. Gone through 2 alts and a battery. Stock brakes and rotors suck and sould be replaced. Motor is strong.

I don't know, you are supposed to, but at the same time I can't imagine it wouldn't eventually fill with oil on it's own.

@@mark_osborne yeah you're right cause I've been driving my 05 Mustang around and in the beginning it had weak power and reverse was alittle harsh and so driving it all day things have been evening out power if more firm now still no 2nd gear but above 60 mph i can feel it shifted into 3rd and it down shifts fine so most likely over time I'll get my 2nd gear back you think?

@@RobertYayo 2nd and 5th use the intermediate servo that applies a band, the forward most band in the transmission. It's common for the servos to give you trouble. You can replace the servo piston by taking the cover off the side that holds it in. But you must know what you're doing. Too much to type. You might find a youtube video on it somewhere.

Does it have manual low ? meaning... if you're driving along about 30 and you put it in 1st, does it have engine braking ?
