I previously owned a 2008 Ford Explorer XLT which unceremoniously blew it's transmission on the way to the supermarket. I had a long battle with it, trying to diagnose a seemingly haunted PCM, as well as any service on the transmission being a complete pain in the ass. I purchased a 2007 Sport Trac with 70k miles on it and want to know what kind of work I could be doing to keep the transmission in good condition or replace it altogether with a newer build 5R55W (or different transmission?).
What are my options for preventative transmission maintenance?
Failing that, which newer build 5R55W's are worth the investment?
Is it possible to put a different, higher quality transmission in it?
