    4r100 slow into first when cold...

    Will it be ok to continue towing with said leak? It doesn't seem to be a problem when everything is warmed up. Is the forward clutch circuit part of the valve body? Please excuse my ignorance here.

    Best valve body upgrade for 4r100

    My bad. I apologize if I have spread some misinformation here. From your name - are you the manufacturer of the Punisher valve body? I am definitely interested.

    Best valve body upgrade for 4r100

    I have heard that too - but I also heard it is more of a racing application and will definitely give bone-jarring shifts, even in day-to-day driving... A little extreme for what I am looking for.

    Hopefully Small engine issue ... Help??

    That one is a BEEEYOTCH! I ended taking mine in to have the sparkplugs replaced by the dealer - too much yelling and screaming on my part to try to get at that darned thing. The coil pack isn't too bad but it is definitely the hardest one of the bunch.

    Apparently they don't change the filter on a flush and it hasn't been changed in a while. I will change it and then see if it helps. Thanks All!

    I have the tranny flushed every year (about 20K miles). The dealer does it, I don't know if they change out the filter or not at that time. I will ask tomorrow.

    +1 on the coil packs. I had the same symptoms when one of my coil packs went bad. Turns out a heater hose had a slow leak and caused the pack to go bad.

    Best valve body upgrade for 4r100

    Thanks for the info. I was thinking about the FTVB - just want to make sure it won't hurt my tranny with 170K on it.

    4r100 slow into first when cold...

    My 2000 expedition transmission has started to show its age (170K miles). On colder mornings, if I have not given the engine sufficient time to warm up, it takes a while for it to "catch" once I initially shift into Drive. Once it "catches" I have no problems. Sometimes there is a...

    My first SUV/FORD/V8

    How many miles? I've got 170K on my 2000. What did the transmission tune-up involve? My tranny makes a high-pitched whine when I first start up when it is cold and is very slow to shift into Drive (10-15 seconds) when it is cold outside.

    Just bought my wife the second Expedition in the family - 08 XLT 4x4. Mine is a 2000 XLT 4x4 with 170,000 miles on it and still going strong.
