I have a 5R55E transmission that has been slipping out of first gear, almost into neutral it seems, and I have to remove my foot from the gas, and let it clunk back into gear, then it's fine. It only will do this when the transmission fluid is warm, only once, then drive with no symptoms. Or if...
I am experiencing an pulsing shutter issue which feels like running through the Rumble Strips you might associated with the approach to traffic signal. This shutter occurs at city street speeds usually in the 1500 to 1800 RPM with just the slightest acceleration to maintain say, 35mph. There is...
I have a 2005 ford explorer xlt 4.0 v6 4x4 automatic with a 5r55s transmission that is blown. I have found a possible donor, a 2002 ford explorer 4.0 v6 4x4 automatic with a 5r55s transmission as well. I am assuming it can be swapped but I am not 100% sure. I have heard that there is a...

98 Explorer, Automatic, 4.0 L SOHC.
Tranny started acting up a few days ago, when I'd put it in gear it would act like it was being shifted into 4-wheel mode. Problem would clear itself when I'd put it back in park, pause, then back into gear.
I wanted to test it so i put it into 4-wheel mode...

Hi Everyone,
I was not able to find a thread that seemed to align specifically with my issue. I have a 2016 Ford Explorer Sport 401A Package. This means it has the wireless key FOB with the factory installed remote starter and perimeter alarm. I recently used ForScan to remove the double honk...
Hello, my name is Shaun and I own a 99 Explorer with 161K miles. I have noticed lately that during longer drives, my O/D light will begin flashing. I have done some research and heard people have a variety of problems when this happens, mainly transmission.
My question is unique, when this...
2002 Explorer. Just finished putting rebuilt trans. in (purchased from auto store) test drove, gears slipping a little. Added more trans. fluid test drove again and gears are slipping worse and now engine light on and O/D flashing. Not sure if fluid is still low or if overfilled. Any suggestions.
I am new to this thread, but it seems like the perfect place to ask for advice. I have a 95 Ford Explorer XLT V6 AT with 220k miles. Bought it last week and all appeared ok for a high miles truck. All was well during test drive so I bought it and started to drive it home which was about an hour...
