    Coast Clutch Failure

    According to the transmission shop the way to tell if the solenoid is working is the OD button and light. If the solenoid fails the OD button will not light up. Mine functions normallly with no codes set. The tech said that the solenoid is engaging, however there is a mechanical failure in the...

    Coast Clutch Failure

    Thanks. The transmission shop removed the pan and checked the solenoid. That part is working. The plastic coast clutch is actually engaging, but it is either burned out or broken, as it has no effect on the speed of the vehicle. The engine basically idles when descending a hill. The...

    Coast Clutch Failure

    Hi, We have a 2001 Expy XLT AWD with the 5.4 engine and 4R100 trans. It has the off road package and tow package. 3:55 gears, 17 inch alloy wheels and such. The vehicle has 101,000 miles on it. I bought the Expy as a winter car from the original owner in 2008. It had 77K miles on it at that...

    The new fuel pump apparently fixed the problem. The truck is running great right now. As soon as I picked up the vehicle from the dealership and got home I loaded six cd's into the in-dash CD-6 HU. The mechanism on the CD changer broke and all of my cd's were stuck inside of it. It would not...

    We got the Expedition back from the dealer on Thursday after they installed a new fuel pump. They checked over the vehicle and other then the coast clutch problem in the transmission the truck checked out great. That coast clutch can run like it is for a while, or the plastic can break into...

    These are our two Trans AM's. The 82 is totally original with 24k miles on it. The 86 is mostly original with 30K miles on it. Both cars have multiple first place wins at regional car shows.

    The blue 2007 vic is my DD. I bought it in 2008 as a PGM car with 12K miles on it. The red 2008 is my wife's car. We bought it brand new in 08. It just turned 30 k miles. The F-350 is a 2002 that we bought new. It currently has 49K miles on it.

    Thanks for the welcome! As for the transmission, the logical solution is to have the stock unit rebuilt. Since it has the 4R100, the possibilities for a HD build are endless. The local shop says that Ford uses plastic and aluminum parts in the 4R100's in the Expy's and F-150, but uses...

    Hi, We are Betty and Charles from the Smoky Mountains. We are both nurses, and have to get to work in any sort of weather. We purchased our 2001 Expedition XLT AWD in 2008 to use as a winter vehicle. It replaced an 87 Dodge Ramcharger 4x4 that was used up. The Expy was a one owner garage...
