I have a 1996 4x4 4.0l with 4r55e and 150,000mi. Last summer (2007) my over OD was slipping and i adjusted the band then it was fine. Then in December the filter fell off the tranny and into the pan i fixed that and used mech. V fluid.It ran good for over a month now it hesitates going into drive but no hesitation in reverse. Once it goes in to 1st it will slip and shudder then when it is about to shift int to 2nd it makes a squawk noise. Every now and then it does the slip and squawk going from 2nd to 3rd. The fluid level looks good. I have no OD light flashing. It goes into OD and down shifts like it always has.
