Drove my wifes explorer the other day and noticed some problems with the tranny seem to be gettig more frequent.
I get the delayed 2-3 shift. It seems like the tranny slips and the engine revs up between the 2-3. My tranny also shifts very softly, yet sometimes, on rare occasions will shift hard for a few gears. Occasionally it will rev in first or second and not shift until around 5000 RPM. reverse and drive are also slow engagement. Seems to shift fine if I manually shift it from 1-2-D.
We took it to the dealer about six months ago and they did a tranny fluid and filter change but the problems were still there, just less frequent. We were hoping the fluid change would resolve this.
