2007 Ford Ranger 4.0L 4x2 Automatic Transmission
About a month ago my sister in law had coolant in her transmission and the truck would not move/shift at all. Took it to her normal mechanic and they said replacing the radiator and a transmission flush might fix it. Around $800…
Got the truck back and is obviously not shifting smoothly but not terrible.
Took it for a test drive with her yesterday and there is at least 5 seconds from Reverse till it will shift into Drive (some lag shifting into reverse to begin with). When it shifts it is a very hard shift and the whole truck shutters. Once driving everything is fairly normal can feel a few of the shifts but nothing like R to D.
Is there any hope for this transmission or just prepare for a rebuild? Anything we can check? So far no lights on the dash. Truck has about 90k on it.
She is driving this 80 kilometers a day to work and back.
