Replying to: rollinpearls (Apr 14, 2008 2:10 pm) this problen could be a tcc solenoid problem in the transmission industry a restricted tcc solenoid would essentially cause the torque converter clutch to stay applied even if the brakes are pressed the tcc solenoid wont be able to exhaust enough fluid to release the tcc. it would be basically the same as a plugged up catalytic converter when cold it will run for a little while but performance gets worse as the car warms up. same principle for the tcc solenoid. Im not always right but that would be my approach to the problem if the car came to my shop This respons was from a member named " fordfan 17" I haven't done it yet but when I do, I'll update.
