hello all,
it has been sometime since my last post, but i had to post this. after hearing all the problems with the 5r55e tranny i just had to do it. i had the 2/3 shift problem, and took it back to the dealer since it was under warranty, and also lazy reverse.....oops! it is a 2004 ranger 4.0 fx4 not level 11. to this day it has 21000 miles, it started to happen at 15000!! it really makes me mad that a truck that has been around for so many years should have these type of problems. but anyway here is the list parts that they said they replaced.......yea-right!!
1 XC3Z*7B155*E FILTER ASY-OIL
1 XL2Z*7A098*DA SCREEN ASY
1 4L5Z*7D034*AA BAND ASY
1 F77Z*7D021*ZA PISTON AND ROD- OVERDRIVE SER
2 XW4Z*71000*AA NUT-SEALING
1 1L5Z*7Z490*CA PLATE-CONTROL VLVE BDY SEPAR
1*E860118*S RETAINER
2*E860129*S RETAINER
1 XL2Z*7G383*AA SOLENOID ASY
1 E9TZ*7086*A GASKET
INLINE TRANS FILTER
it still sinks going into reverse i will probably sell it i will not put $$$$$$ into this since i read these are junk, 550 ft-pounds of torque input give me a break, its under warranty till 09-09-09. unless i can put a shift-kit or something in it. i'll keep my 72 ford 400m
thanks for your time!
