- 03 Explorer XLT
2003 Explorer XLT 4.0 Auto 4x4. 123XXX miles. Trans fluid flushed at 95K. Trans has never slipped or given me any troubles whatsover. Have owned for 60K miles/6 years.
Out of nowhere it would rev to about 3500-4750 RPM and "slam" into 3rd gear. All other shifts are smooth and normal from what I can tell. A couple of times when it would "slam" into third it was accompanied by a little "chirp" but not every time. OD LIGHT doesnt start blinking until it slams into 3rd for the first time after vehicle is shut off.
I have had the normal intermittent ABS light/cruise not working, for some time now, just havent fooled with it...dont know if there's a possible relation.
I have a shop that I trust, but I like to fix things myself if I am capable. Any thoughts or diagnosis?
