A quick update for those still interested.
I can't thank you all enough for your replies and great info. This is an awesome forum, and community. I hope nothing but the best for everyone with the 10R80. I really hope the CDF Drum /Bushing failure is as rare as some report. My original post is...
Years ago I had a 2005 Focus ST 5speed. The little cable broke somewhere in the dash. Instead of running a new cable, I did the same as you and moved the direction as needed. It was on the upper right driver side under the dash. I found one of the coolest little things that some Ford engineer...
Oh did I ever. I've read through the TSB more times than I can remember.
I agree. Unfortunately all the service writer had to say was that they weren't feeling the hard shifts/couldn't replicate my symptoms, and "couldn't find any codes".
So have I. I've been looking at late 80's - mid 90's.
Interchangeable? Do you know if they upgraded the materials for the VB? I read somewhere that the new models had anodized parts for better lubricity/ durability.
That is unbelievably useful information sir. Thank you very much. I'll definitely bring it to the dealership's attention, if they'll listen.
Using my OBDLink EX and OBD Fusion, I didn't see any major differences between the ambient temp displayed on the SYNC screen, the ambient temp displayed...
Thanks. In all honesty, even if they do rebuild/replace the trans, I've pretty much lost all confidence in the truck. On top of the trans, now the turbo may be toast. I've been borderline fanatical with my maintenance routine. Full synthetic oil changes and premium filters every 5k. Air filter...
Thanks man. I've figured out that the dealerships do know about it, they just don't give a shit. They don't get paid as much as they want for big warranty repairs because they're flat rate. So they do the small jobs in half of Fords allotted time, and come out ahead. The only way they want to...
Yep. Piss poor dealerships, designs, customer loyalty... And I guess there's nothing Ford can do to get dealerships in line, if they even care. The fact that there hasn't been a recall on the CDF is disgusting. There's a reason the parts were updated in 2022, and that they switched to the 10R60...
So this is gonna be a long one. Buckle up.
First off, I've worked for FoMoCo at two different plants in KY for over 13 years.
My 2021 Ranger XLT FX4 started having pretty severe rough shifting issues around 35,000 miles. I took it to the dealership where I purchased it, and they told me that...
Hey, sorry about replying to an older post. I'm having the same issues with my 10r80 ranger (21 XLT FX4) even after the reprogram and valve body replacement done this year. Do you know if they did a trans fluid "pressure test" to determine if the CDF drum bushing has failed/shifted?
