#2324 of 2410 2004 ford freestar minivan purchased used by amstern May 15, 2008 (6:24 am)
How could I have been so remiss? I did not research adequately the problems with transmissions in these minivans. We did buy a pretty high mileage one, so of course there wasn't even an option for a warranty. We're now waiting to have a Jasper reman transmission put in at a hopefully "reputable" independent transmission shop to the tune of about $3000.00. Probabaly should have paid upfront for an Odyssey.

#2326 of 2410 98 Venture troubles. by venturealex May 17, 2008 (1:31 pm)
I have a 98 Venture with a rebuilt, 50k miles, transmission. Last week 500 miles from home it started hunting between low and 2nd with light throttle pressure. I added a bottle of Lucas trans fix. At freeway speeds it seemed OK. After nursing it all week I got home OK except for some city driving it hunted again. While cold it couldn't find low but will when warmed up. The hard parts seem OK just the control. Can anyone of you trans gurus tell me what to look for when I take it apart? Shift solenoid, dirty valve bady, computer?

Replying to: acura_lover1 (May 17, 2008 11:23 pm) This wouldn't be worth the trouble or expense.   Just sell it and buy something different with a stick.   And, I wouldn't buy another Vigor even if you could find one. They were decent cars but they were very strange and vERY difficult to work on them. The technicians hated them for that reason.
