Transmission Slipping in the Crown Victoria

[StrangerinaStrangeLand-imyl]

That was probably an issue with an internal pressure loss due to the factory valve body parts wearing out or sticking. Or, the weld for the forward clutch drum (used for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd only) broke a quarter or halfway around and resulted in a slipping forward symptom, which would eventually burn the forward frictions down and lose all forward/reverse engagement. I have a 2006 Ford P71 which I fixed the transmission (A Ford 4R75E) for loss of 3rd and Overdrive myself.

Used junkyard transmission - problem solved.

Yeah your transmission is toast. Mine did this a few months ago. The plate behind the Torque Converter cracked, sheered off and shot metal through the whole casing. Not fun, not cheap. I did a rebuild though, not replace

[SgtPickledic]

Transmission gave codes. Thus why the check engine light is on.. Could of been a handful of things, a lot of times its a TCU, or solenoids failing sticking which is pretty easy to change also a lot cheaper to change then buying a whole transmission.. Its your money.

Try checking your transmission fluid, my 94 mustang gt did this today and it was low fluid. They are similar except mine is a 5.0 the vic is a 4.6

This usually isn’t actually from bad hard parts in the transmission, but typically bad solenoids or other electrical component failure.

Has the 3/4 of the fluid and filter ever been replaced?

[jefferyepperson]

I had an 03 that would slip unless you took it out of overdrive. Never fixed it ended up selling it to a buddy who derby racing, hes still using it with the same transmission

If I had only listened to Scotty Kilmer and not bought this pile of horse manuare 🤣🤣

[j.arreola]

Have you thought about using royal purple transmission oil ATF not sure if it’s compatible with mercon v ?

[InsaneDoglifeGangsta]

Swapped out the TPS and Throttle Body only to get that same problem again

[fartdonkey]

Thats not a slip that's a 4000rpm stall converter

[morpheuspeacelove]

Clutches are shot. Time to pull the unit and rebuild

[crownvicbrian]

What was the labor cost to replace the transmission?

[johnhenry]

When I had the wrench light on my 05 it was the throttle body

[Kylewraps]

That seems like low mileage for transmission to be going out imo

My 2014 Silverado got 190k miles on original transmission

[jacobtorres]

I does the transmission slip as we’ll because I think my catalytic converters are clogged

[tmancarguy]

That happened to my crown vic and I got the transmission rebuilt.

[EHSMN]

Dude, the wrench light means you need an oil change

[Ryan_and_Dads_RC]

its a powertrain malfunction indicator
