Do you have a copy of the repair order of what they did when they “rebuilt “ your transmission? Looking at your previous posts all I could see was a valve body replacement.

No issues yet. But I did have some spare time the other day and did a preemptive strike on my DPFE sensor. Removed the factory crimp clamps and replaced them with screw type clamps. Will make swapping out with my spare sensor that currently rides in my glove box easy to do when the time comes.

I never had a light and they put a new transmission in mine under warranty. It all has to do with shift quality. They will check for codes but it’s not contingent upon having any. Attaching the TSB for you to read up on

So your still under the 5 year 60K miles powertrain warranty. I would suggest that you take it in to have the transmission looked at ( TSB 24-2101 ) before doing anything to the transmission yourself. More than likely you are having the TSB related issue. If so then Ford will cover it.

This ➡️➡️➡️ “My advice: if you’re still under the 5 year powertrain warranty don’t wait or else you’ll be paying 8-10K for this repair.” I also cannot emphasize this enough .

Take it in, from what you’ve described it has the issue.

Same original issue but now it’s a recall

Were you using tow-haul mode?

Is that US or Canadian?

What was the transmission temperature when you checked it ( this time and before)

They’re open on Labor day?

No worries. I was responding to the “that a motorcycle or small car could easily hide in.” that I couldn’t see comment. I also drive slow and my head on a swivel.
