Ford expedition 2006 transmission problem?
I own a garage, and I got stuck in this thing really annoying!
Car had a problem in the 2nd shift, trans was overhauled and all parts where changed, also the valve body, solenoid pack and all.
the problem in details is, in second and fifth gear, the car when driven normaly on a stable speed shifts normally and smoothly. But when there's a kickdown the second gear get stuck and rpm goes high then I get the transmission symbol on the cluster, that's where I turn off the car and back on to test drive it again, I face the same problem then I press the gas then release to get lower or higher shiftings. Something weird I found while transmission was in rebuilt process is the band it was burned, … But what may cause this problem, is it the servo or is it a leak in the container/gear container, or perhaps piston or governor driven somehow its not pressuring well,?!
Please i'm stuck in this I have observed everything closely, what am I missing there, Please advice and help me!
A band burns because of insufficient pressure to hold it firmly, so it slips and heats up.
It is not easy to tell.
For example, if one uses a cloth rag to wipe the dipstick, that can get enough lint in to ruin a ball bearing seal, and cause slippage.
Automatics are that sensitive.
Get rid of that POS and buy a japanese car
- 2006 Ford Ranger, lack of power and rough idling, what could be the problem? I have a 2006 Ford Ranger manual 4 x 4 sport, with 160,000 km (100,000 miles) that I bought back in August. It ran well until today. On my way to work, I drove a few blocks when I noticed when I accelerated there was little power, and it was idling rough. I drove it back home and noticed there was this black soot coming out of the exhaust. I can't have it seen until the 2nd, so I'm just looking for any insight on what the problem can be.
- Should I get a 2006 Ford F-150 XLT or 2006 Chevy Silverado Z71? Which truck would be better… I need a tough truck to haul around kids (both are 4-door), a little off-road driving around the farm and fishing, pulling a 4k to 5k trailer. Which engine is better, Fords 5.4L or Chevys 5.3L? Is one transmission better than the other? Which will give me the least or most problems? All pros and cons appreciated, thank you!
- My 2000 ford expedition is having a problem with the turning signals. Can anybody identify the problem? The hazard lights work perfectly. I changed out the flasher unit and still not working. I hear like a crackling noise when i try to turn them on. Also, they partially work when I'm pressing the brakes.
- I own a 2006 Ford Expedition. I just had the coil packs and plugs changed? After having them changed, when the truck gets warm. The idle drops down to 250 rpm's and it dies when slowing down to a stop or turning. Can't find any vacuum leak and double checked all electrical connections. Any advice on what it could be?
