- 1996 Ford Explorer Limite
So to make things easier for you to understand, I have a 96 Ford Explorer Limited V8 AWD. Just last week, I checked my transmission fluid, and it was burned and darkish brown, but the transmission was shifting just fine. I made an appointment for the following week for a fluid & filter change.
The next day...the car would still shift just fine, but in every gear, if your accelerating from 1500 RPM's, the car hesitates and kind of jolts, and you hear a couple bangs and clunks. Does anyone know what this is? At first I thought it was the transmission because of the burned fluid, but I got the fluid changed today and it still does it. I even added a bottle of Lucas Transmission Fix to see if that helped, but nope it didn't. It seems to bang and hesitate when accelerating up from 1500-2000 RPMs. Any ideas?
