#64 of 215 2000 Ranger Trans Slipping by budz2 Nov 27, 2007 (4:51 am)
Im looking to buy a 2000 Ranger from work and the Transmission has a bit of a slip in it, The guy trading it in says that the part to fix it is on backorder. Has anyone ever heard of the 2000 rangers with the 4.0 and auto doing this. I read another post that mentioned a valvebody spacer and another part. I like this truck but dont want to but someone elses nightmare. Thanks in advance Replies to this message: bolivar (Dec 07, 2007 9:38 pm)
#65 of 215 Correct Transmission Fluid by singstream Dec 07, 2007 (5:31 pm)
I recently changed the transmission fluid on my 99 Ranger AT 2.5L. My Chilton repair manual for 91-99 Ranger/Explorer/Mountaineer says to "use Mercon automatic transmission fluid. DO NOT use improper fluids such as Dexron or gear oil."   The transmission fluid that I used says it is for Dexron/Mercon, but to not use on Ford vehicles that require Mercon V.   Can someone tell me if I will need change the transmission fluid again?

Replying to: budz2 (Nov 27, 2007 4:51 am) There are a lot of used Rangers out there.   Why involve yourself with one with a slipping transmission?
#67 of 215 2000 Ranger V6 (small 6) manual trans by dejohn6 Dec 13, 2007 (10:06 am)
Would like some info to see if its the transmission or the clutch that is sadly not working properly. Gears are hard to shift into unless clutch is to the floor. Want to go to shop with some info on hand as its a cruel world out there. Gears do shift smoother after warming up for a while. Thanks

#69 of 215 my truck makes a weird clunking noise from the tranny by rangerman251 Jan 08, 2008 (2:17 pm)
i bought a new 2007 ranger FX4 level 2 in june. late in november i started to hear a clunking noise or a thud coming from under the truck every few min's as i was driving up a hill here in town . i took the truck back to the dealer and they replaced my transfer case saying it was faultly. it still never fixed the noise problem. so i took the truck back to ford again and this time i went with the mechanic on a road test and we both heard the thud noise twice . he said theat there's nothing he could do and that it was some sort of re-bound noise of the drive shafts when one wheel spins a bit faster than the other because of the road conditions of winter with snow and ice regulary on the road up here in the north. but i dont belive him because i've never heard of a truck make that kind of a nose if everything is supose to be fine . any thoughts of what it could be ? and the soulition   I'd like to add the truck only has 9000km on it and i only hear the noise when the truck is in 4x4HI going about 60-80 km . im just sick of hearing that sound

Update my 02 Ranger only seems to have the clunking sound when I go into 4x4 back into 2 wheel drive. It has a clunking sound and seems as if it is shifting down hard,then it goes completely away after about 20 mile's.
#71 of 215 brand new clutch installed causing bad noise by chrisjaaay Jan 15, 2008 (6:14 pm)
I have a 2003 4x4 ranger with the 4.0 litre engine and I had a new clutch put in about a week ago. The minute I started my engine after it was put in I noticed a grinding or spinning noise coming from right below my shifter. I thought it might be the new parts breaking in so I tried to ignore it for a few days but the noise persisted. When I consulted my mechanic about it, he drove my truck and told me that it was a normal thing for rangers after time to aquire that noise and that there was nothing he could do about it. This noise does not seem normal to me at all. It drives me nuts. Has anyone had this problem with a ranger ever? I can hear it through all 5 gears. Please help
#72 of 215 Ranger differential by lau123 Jan 16, 2008 (3:20 pm)
I know this is probably the wrong spot for this question, but not sure where else to post. How do I know if the '04 used 2WD Ranger I am considereing buying has the limited slip differential? The salesman said he could tell by the axle code of F6 on the tag on the door. I asked two different service people and they said you could not tell that way. You had to crawl uner the vehicle and look at the differential for a tag the would say LSD with a number. 3.73? Any one know? Thanks Replies to this message: bolivar (Jan 16, 2008 4:53 pm)
