About 4 days ago I bought a 95 Explorer. I was told it had just started slipping in transmission so the nd "mechanic" changed the fluid and filter. I went to see about trans flush yesterday, but to start with the shop confirmed my thoughts, the " mechanic" filled transmission 2 1/2 qts overfilled. (Sad Thing, i think she relies on him for income, support, etc.)She said it was fine then after a few days or a week started slipping again. She parked it and put it up for sale. My big question, since I haven't been on here in a really long time, a year or more, I had thought all along in all the time I have owned Explorers that the a4id transmission was produced and or installed only 91-94. The 95 I just bought has a transmission code "T" on the door sticker. So the 95's included the a4ld ? But the differences between let's say the 93 in my one truck and the 95 in my newer one is ? 95 is partly or fully electronically controlled ? I know these questions are probably answered in here somewhere, however about 6-7 months ago I was diagnosed with Autoimmune Retinopathy. So the last 2 1/2 years I been losing my vision, my eyes are very light sensitive, and they start hurting early after not very long of reading. But the 95 I bought shifts fine 1-2 ,2-3, the OD is where the slipping occurs. The O/D OFF LIGHT on dash flashes and I don't know if it's connected but I notice the radio when playing the sound cuts out just all of a sudden. Then will come back on at it own whenever, usually seems within a minute or two.
The truck is in very decent shape especially for $300.00. I would get a used transmission if it comes to that. But I'm going to adjust bands first and see what happens. Any suggestions are much appreciated. I apologize for so long.
