My 99 Explorer AWD 5.0 liter has exhibits a transmission stutter when in high gear (overdrive) during acceleration from low engine speed. most prevalent at 40-45 mph with engine speed just below 1500 rpm. If I lightly press the accelerator pedal to accelerate without causing downshift, I feel a couple shudders. If I repeat the conditions but press the accelerator hard enough to cause a downshift, everything is smooth. Problem only occurs if I "lug" the engine when in overdrive. Most annoying when city driving and travelling up a slight grade at 40 mph.
Transmission oil was discolored. So I had a complete tranny fluid change performed at Ford. Problem is still present.
Any thoughts or am I looking at a transmission rebuild?
Sorry, but do not know the transmission model. Thanks for any and all responses
