If only it was that simple with these transmissions, as well your car doesnt have the transmission that this thread is about. What works for your tranny doesnt work for these ones.
WELL WHAT DO YA KNOW...
FORD COULDNT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well now its the 2nd time in 6 months ive brought my car in to them so twice now its logged on file. Seems that every time i leavee the car there overnight we have a 70 degree day the next day..
So now the waiting game, the car will be going back in again next time i see the temp is going to be in the 40-50's and ill be going with a print out of the TSB in hand.
I spoke with the service manager and he said once they can duplicate the problem they can go to work fixing it, until then his hands are tied.

I am having the same problem with the 1-2 shift and sometimes 2-3. I called Tremec and they said it was 3.2 qts as the fill level. I would call tremec and ask for their advice. They seemed a lot more interested in helping me when I called them. Ford has also denied the fix for me. They said that the clunking is normal in a manual transmission and that it needs to start popping out of gear before they will perform any work on it. I asked if I could install a short throw to help with the problem and they told me they would void my warranty so I am thinking about canceling it. I feel that I could use the money I would get back by canceling it to fix the problems that Ford is going to keep denying. Stick it to them and cancel the warranty. Then use the money to buy the TSB kit. My $.02.
They dont have to have mine pop out of gear, they just want to hear it grind. So im waiting till it gets nice and cold and its going back in.
The service manager told me as soon as they verify what im telling them they will fix it, its just been too warm and the tranny hasnt been doing it when i bring it in. The cold weather will fix that real quick..
Im still keeping my fingers crossed. The warranty is a good thing, my pinion seal was leaking-replaced no questions asked
They just have to verify and experience the problem first hand or their hands are tied.
The service manager and I had a fairly long talk and he wants to fix the problem. He told me to wait until its colder and bring it back.
