Hi. My 07 EB begun with shifting issues more than a year ago, and now is ok, so I want to give my 2 cents:
1) Having in mind the TSB about the issue, the 6R60 TCM was updated, but the issue persisted.
2) Since Ford says the 6R60 is a "sealed" unit, I started to look for a new valve body. IDS software showed P0731, P0741 and P0735 DTC´s, so many, so diverse, at the same time. BTW, I almost get ripped by a guy named Scott Yaslow from Tampa, Fl., he offers rebuilt valve bodies through many ebay scam companies. Even has signed an AVC with Florida´s AG´s office, he keeps scamming with Ford Transmission Parts, Quality Transmission Parts and some other websites.
3) No valve body, shifting issue worstening, I read this thread from Adam06Mount, and found it useful (Thanks buddie, whoever you are!):

4) I bought 11 quarts of MERCON SP oil, and a new pan gasket. Prior to draining the trans, I found that the salesman gave me a 5r55 gasket, and he had ran out of 6R60 ones. No gasket, no pan uninstalling.
5) When we started to pump out the oil (hand pump, never "flush"), only pumped less than a quart (¿?). Trans was almost empty!!! Why? I never saw any oil leak below my Ex! Well, at the rear right corner of the pan, I noticed a drop by drop leak which landed over the exhaust pipe cross section, vaporizing almost inmediately and never reaching the floor. The transmission ran empty, drop by drop, along more than a year.
6) Once it was filled up, DTC´s vanished, shifting became softer than ever, no valve body needed. After filling and testing, noticed one leak at the left cooling hose where it attaches to the radiator. D...ng "easy hoses"!!!
Conclusion:
First check the oil level, fill if needed. Bought my Ex brand new, dealer services done, never touched trans, and it was leaking!!!
Changed my opinion about 6R60´s, they are very strong units, this one had a hard time and still runs fine. I´m planning to install a better cooling system (hope no "easy hoses"), and, needless to say, an oil pan with drain plug. Seems this units may last a long time with periodic oil changes (Mine has some 50K miles). Dealer says "no flushing", I agree, but "no maintenance" or refill is just an easy way to have customers knocking the door for transmission replacements.
Best regards, hope this help!
