I have a 1990 ford f 150 that starts to miss or bang out going up a hill in second gear. It smooths out when it shifts to third gear. I've replaced the coil and a bad coil wire with no luck. What else do i need to look at? Thanx.

When was your trans fluid last changed? the Manual says to change it EVERY 30k!

2006 F-150 Transmission Problems

I got a "transmission malfuntion" message on my truck and then it started acting up. It would hardly move from a stop and when it did it would squeal the tires a few times before engaging.
Took it to a tranny place and they told me the torque converter came apart and it also ruined the pump. Anyhow, they charged my $2500 to make the repairs. Not 100 yards down the road it started doing same thing.
They have it right now and dont know what's wrong. Only 56K miles. This FRIGGIN SUCKS! Any one else have problems with 2006 tranny? Im really pissed cause its a King Ranch and I paid out the ass for it.
Thanks for any help.

2001 F350 Diesel Transmission problem

I am having a problem with my tranny on my 2001 F350. It started with a strange noise, like gears grinding or not meshing under the drivers feet. It also started shifting weird. Not going into 2nd until you back off the throttle. Then the OD. off light started to flash. After turning off the engine the OD. off light did not return. Now it is just shifting hard and still the into 2nd problem. Any thoughts as to what could be wrong. I do not know where to start looking. Thank you.

I had this problem and it was the torque convertor.I got one installed on my extended warrantty. That warranty came in handy they also installed a new motor. the only problem i have now is rough idle once and awhile and loss off power. If i stop the truck and restart it runs great. This seems to happpen once every two months.

the only linkage is the shift linkage from the column, if that is ok then i think you might have a low/reverse clutch issue, or the case bushings were the output shaft rides on can cause that isssue

hi i had the same shuddering problem with my 1993 f150 4x4 with150000 miles with the e40d i had the tranny flushed for $160 bucks that didn't help one bit what a waste of money the shop said this will fix it no problem then had 2 more shops look at it one said its the torque converter and it would cost about $1600 bucks the other shop said it was a torque converter pressure senser and it would cost more than replacing the torque converter after listening to all the BS from these tranny shops i thought the tranny was shot cause it was shuttering so bad so i went to the auto parts store and bought a can of TRANS-X transmission additive made by k-m and figured what the hell it can't hurt and its a lot less than $1600 to $2000 grand after 2 days driving arround town no difference so i jumped on the freeway for a 150 mile ride guess what you got it no more shuttering i can't believe it but it worked for about $7.50 its working good i've put about 3000 miles on it and still no problems no shuttering shifts like new good luck guys try some it cant hurt and it might work on yours i know this is gonna piss off some of these tranny mechanics but if i would have got a straight answer from them instead of 3 different answers to what the problem was i might have wasted a lot of money

I had that once in my 99, Diesel, changed the fluid and added B&G tranny treatment adn it worked great, won a lot of races at the Drag strip with too, lol. Now my 01 is a different story, did the same thing flushed it out and put in the B&G and it did all right for 14K miles then the tranny completely went out, lucky for me I know a lot of people here in the Denver area and got mine rebuilt for under 2000 with a Torgue Converter that is better than anything Billet, ATS or Summit sells for Diesels. If anyone ever has to take a long drive in the Vehicle ( gas or diesel ) try some of that B&G fuel cleaner, it works best when you run the whole tank through. Anytime I start losing MPG I will take a long drive and run a tank of that through and it goes back to what I was getting before.
