To all with the transmission down-shifting problems after comming to a stop. Put the truck back in shop, got it back today, so far so good. Dealer ship called Ford and they sent them a different program for the transmission. It shifts normal now, just hope it stays this way.-thx.

It should be able to pull it just fine. I've pulled my 3700lb boat to the lake and up mountain inclines many times in the past year with my '93. No problems, and it has 200,000+ miles. I think you just have a bad tranny

known transmission issues are posted in my blog concerning blown valve body gaskets could save you an overhaul if you know about it and get it fixed before you spend money for a rebuild

Could it be Tranny by bottini

I have a 99 Explorer with 110,000 mile. I has the SOHC 4.0 engine
At 102,000 miles had the plugs and plug wires replaced.
The vehicle started missing right after this
Replaced the plugs and plug wires again.
Still missing. If it is under 2000 rpm and you start up an incline it starts to miss. Once it downshifts and it gets over 2000 rpm it quits missing.
Replaced the fuel filter and the ignition coil module and it is still missing.
It has been on 2 different scopes and shows no codes.
Could this somehow be related to the transmission? It is not slippage, but a definite miss

it could be transmission related if yor miss comes in at highway speeds only after the last gearshift it could be a torque chatter

I have an 05 explorer that is doing the same thing. Have you found out what the problem is?

It's terrible, the transmission troubles with Explorers. I've had mine now for 5 years, and luckily not tranny problems yet, but everyone I know who has one says the same thing, nothing but problems with their transmissions. Some of them have even had them replaced up to three time now.
  When doing a little research on the topic I came across Autobeef, they have a lot of the same complaints....check out this one page it has something like 70 people all saying around the same thing..http://www.carcomplaints.com/Ford/Explorer/2004/transmission/transmission- _slipping_shifts_hard.shtml
  -the transmission control module
  -or the valve body
or the whole thing. When is ford going to help fix the problem they created in the first place.

2000 XLT tranny slip by kthor

My Explorer has just developed a upshift slip between 1st and 2nd gear at about 3000 rpm it revs up to about 4000 rpm and then switches gear. No other issues when downshifting or between any other gears. Is this a transmission issue, computer control, or something else?

this trans blows valvebody gaskets creating these shifting conditions may be able to replace valvebody gaskets and go on your way
