Ford F-150 & Expedition 6R80 Six Speed Transmission: Common Leak Points Often Misdiagnosed!

[@pilotguy1141]

I love and hate your videos at the same time. I love how detailed they are how in-depth you go on how to fix items. Which has saved me time and money .But then again watching some of your videos make me paranoid like my F-150 is going to break every day

I feel THE SAME WAY. Not with this video but all of the Ecoboost videos. I have 2 Ecoboost vehicles and I'm thinking that I need to get rid of them and go to a brand that doesn't have boost technology. Just V8 displacement.

[@AzzKicker-bz1cb]

@@TheTwigbert That would be a smart move, but you’ll need to find someone who isn’t already aware of the “ecopuke”(parts exploders) issues and are wanting to buy such garbage!!! I tried to warn my girlfriend about buying one, but when we were in front of the salesman and she asked me what my thoughts were on buying one( I had already told her before she took it for a test drive) I asked her to step outside so the salesman didn’t hear what I was saying, but she said if I had something to say I should go ahead and say it!!! I walked out of the office and she bought the car, cause she wouldn’t listen!

Just had a transmission fluid service on my 2010 f150. It was 400$, and they fixed the sleeve that had a slow leak. Doing it all myself would have saved 300$ but i definitely would've missed that leak point. Truck has 178k with now 2 fluid drains in its life. Very happy with the transmission.

[@alpinestar1123]

I've been through three lead frames and two transmissions. Every year my lead frame would go out and I'd have to get it repaired from Ford. I had the transmission rebuilt by a private shop and a year later I was having shift issues from 6th to 1st while driving on the freeway. Turns out it was my harness on the firewall that ran down by the exhaust manifold that had fallen off the clips and melted seven wires that went to the transmission. I don't know why the Ford technicians never caught that or check for that. It took out of my third lead frame and Ford would not cover. So I went online purchased a new lead frame new pan filter and a box of transmission oil and watched his video on how to swap it out. Did it myself or 250 bucks in my driveway and got me a wiring harness for 180 and that was two years ago and haven't had a problem since. Thanks for all the great videos keep them up

Great video, Brian. My neighbor has one of these and it leaked all over his newly poured concrete driveway. He took it to a shop, who replaced the pan gasket. It still leaked. He took it to another shop, that specializes in transmissions, and they replaced the bulkhead connector. That cured the problem. Keep up the great work.

Thank you for the information, and reassurance that the 6R80 is virtually bulletproof with care and maintenance I have a 2016 4+4 5.0 75.000 miles and plan on keeping till the wheels fall off with all the crap that they are putting on the newer models

[@timcorbett9629]

Had a 6R80 start hard shifting and going into limp mode all the time. Dealer and trans shop quoted new transmission. Dropped the valve body and found the square pillow block, (I think it connects the pump to the torque converter), cracked in half. Replaced that, the 4 crush tubes, the bulkhead seal, and she's good as new. $125 in parts I think.

Brian, thanks for taking the time to do this video. What perfect timing, I have been looking online for a week and did not find any info on the rear output shaft seal leaking. I figured this is the source of my 6R80 leak on my 2010 F150 4WD but after watching your video I'm now convinced that pulling my transfer case and replacing those seals as well as the transmission output seal will take of it.

[@islagirl4567]

Yup! I have a 2009 F-150 with the 6R80 with a re-programmed shift point. I noticed ATF fluid in the drive. I looked all over for the "gasket" leak and stumbled on the bulkhead connector.

[@danhg3885]

Like you stated everything looks like a pan gasket leak given where the fluid runs. In my experience the pan gasket isn’t robust as they are intended for reuse but do not survive careful removal as it’s cheaply made. Running a trans shop we see plenty 6R80s fail, it’s all relative, let’s say they fail less than GMs 6L series but that’s not saying much. Good video as always to inform the Ford owners. We will never run out of work with Ford and GM.

[@leighmarts8647]

I had a 2010 f-150 with a 6r80, bought it used with 70k on it, and after about 10k it started to have a shutter on light throttle at highway speed. I determined it was the torque converter, pulled it and found a ford reman one in there. Thought that was interesting, so I dropped the pan to change the filter and found a valve body bolt sitting in the pan. I figure they must have replaced the converter and never dropped the pan. I drove that truck for another 90k miles never had another issue.

[@mitchf1508]

Just another reason I wish they had put in a traditional trans fluid dip stick/fill tube on these 6R80 trans... I have one in my 13 F150 Ecoboost and so far so good.. Going to be doing a pan drop/filter/fluid change on the rig soon, but I'm going to be putting on a new trans pan with a drain bolt in it! Then at least for future fluid changes, I can just drain and fill a lot easier and not risk messing up the pan gasket with a pan drop each time.

I love this channel... I've learned sooo much as a Ford owner. The ONLY thing I wish was different with the content is if you gave some rough prices and labor time to repair some of these things from an honest mechanics perspective. I've discovered some the repairs you outlined in your videos but when I go to the dealer/local mechanic I don't know if I'm getting ripped off for the repair. Actually, I live in WI and thought about driving my vehicles down to you for repairs.

[@DapimpBDSD]

Prices vary, locally, dealerships are overbooked and the prices are ridiculously high (IMO). ONLY reasons I'd take it to a dealership right now, is because it's winter and/or I don't have extra time to do it myself but even then, local dealerships have at least a 2 week backlog on work so yeah. Not really trying to complaining about dealerships but yeah situation kinda sucks.

Thank you for the great information. If the tail shaft seal is leaking, how quickly does it need repaired? I just discovered similar looking evidence of leaking on my 15 F150, just shy of 114,000 miles. I’ve owned it four years, since about 25,000 miles, with no transmission issues. I discovered the leak as it has coated part of the transfer case. I have seen zero drips or puddling on any surface where I commonly park.

Thanks for the heads up! Oddly I just had one in that was leaking and it was so low it was slipping . Turned out it was the bulkhead

My 2014 Expedition had the bulkhead sleeve leak and get fluid on the wire connections. The dash went crazy, with lights flashing, gauges bouncing one end to the other and every possible message displaying. All while driving. Parked the vehicle and it would not restart because it would not recognize the chip in either key. The sleeve was replaced and the wires cleaned. Couple of months later there was a relapse and the vehicle became completely undrivable. The dash cluster controller shorted out. Currently waiting on repairs.

Ford forced me to use the original dealer to fix the botched rebuild. Hasn't shifted right since. Shudders when shifting 1st to 2nd. I wont tow with the truck now because of it. Have more details on exact components that were damaged improperly installed if interested.

[@SharksRtops]

So I’m installing a transfer case on a 6R75 transmission (2007 Expedition). Is it necessary to buy a new Case to Adapter Housing gasket or can I just clean and reinstall without one? If the output seal is leaking I would like to see it asap instead of the gasket hiding it. PS. Thank you for your videos, you are a huge resource for us DIY Ford owners.

[@oby-1607]

Small leaks can not just be a nuisance but also dangerous for the transmission depending on how bad the leak is. B&M Transmissions sells a transmission dipstick kit where one can check the trans fluid level from under the hood. Are these kits safe for day to day use and would you recommend them? I realize the leaks have to be repaired but sometimes we are in remote locations and can't access parts right away.

[@ryantracy1531]

I installed the B&M dipstick on my 2011 expedition and I like it. No leaks after 6000 miles or so. The fittings are nice and machined well. Tech tip: I put some stainless zip ties to keep the tube off the exhaust down pipe. Be sure to make sure your trans is properly filled before installing so you can get a good mark on the new dipstick.

[@chrisgraham2904]

Ford eliminated the dipstick because these transmissions are sealed and pressurized, but the aftermarket dipsticks provide the same seal and seem to do a good job. The dipstick connection at the transmission is a push fit with O-rings, rather than a screwed mechanical connection that is a concern, but I haven't heard of any actual issues. The aftermarket kit is usually $200 to $250 in the U.S., but I haven't found the kit available in Canada under $550.00

[@blakestruble22]

Awesome Videos! You always explain everything in full and great details. This is not really related but my search brought me here. I have a 2014 F150 5.0, I've had the rear main seal replaced. to do this they had to drop the tranny pan and replaced filter and fluid. Ive checked the tranny fluid level recently and it was up to temp boy this is sure fun to do. My fluid was dark reddish rusty brown but does not smell burnt is this normal for LV fluid. When i open tranny fill 19mm port to access dip stick fluid is running out of the port and I am unable to get an accurate read because fluid is everywhere no matter how many times I wipe the port there is always fluid there to hinder my read. Still yet to check at cold temp. Does this sound like too much fluid in my transmission. The reason for checking fluid is that my 3rd to 4th gear has a shudder when shifting. What could this be? If you could give me some insight with all of your ford experience. I appreciate you man keep it up.

I have had some concerns with hard shifting in my ‘17 f150 with a 6R80. I’m pretty confident that all recalls and so on were complied with by somewhere in the realm of 2019-2020. I’ve also experienced where it wouldn’t upshift while in tow mode. I’d pass someone, it would downshift to 2nd or 3rd gear, and then wouldn’t upshift. I’d have to slow down and accelerate slowly, or knock it out of tow mode. This seems to me like software issues. Do you know when the latest and greatest came out on that? Would they have completed software updates before I purchased it in 2019, or when I brought it in for unrelated service in 2020?

@@mr.boostang2064 I doubt it's a vacuum leak. It would probably have to be huge to cause a misfire. You would be able to hear a big vacuum leak by the hissing noise. I would still look at misfire data to see if just one side is being affected or both sides. If just one bank is misfiring, then you look at injectors or ignition or maybe intake manifold. If both sides, look at egr or maf sensor, such as that. Intake manifolds are not an uncommon problem on 4.6's.

You just have to take your time, clean off all the drips and all the fluid, and make a proper diagnosis. So many people see leaks and immediately want to condemn the pan gasket.

Is it possible to use a 6r80 in a 2007 expedition? Or I need some programming to adapt it?

[@astew518]

Mine had to be rebuilt at 120k due to torque converter. 5.0 2015. Ever seen that issue? I was told it was common

I got one, 2021 Ford Expedition Max the start-stop feature intermittently when coming to a stop engine shuts down and then when you go to accelerate there's no power you have to turn off the vehicle turn it back on to restart the vehicle no codes when scanned other than low-voltage code check the battery was filthy and had parasitic drain clean the battery problem went away for two weeks and now returned any thoughts?

[@NepaAuto]

FordTechMakeuLoco I need your opinion . I have an 09 expedition that downshifts hard and is even worse in cold weather. It will occasionally not downshift and I need to restart the car to reset it . I tried disconnecting battery and that didn’t work . Please help
