Been watching you on many different tranny tear downs. Top notch, you are the best for sharing your knowledge. Thank you.

If its leaking out the front main seal would you recommend changing the torque converter seal as well or just the main seal?

The strategy and idn numbers are on the harness connector on the solenoid body its hard to see on the main valve body cuz its etched in but they put it in those three spots including the I. D. tag on the too of the transmission and of ciused saved on the pcm that can be access with a VCMII to look uo bands and characterization idn numbers.

Hi Gary ,I have a 2009 Ford Escape XLT 3.0 V6 6f35 gearbox.Had the gearbox repaired as was not shifting from 2nd to 3rd etc ,working ok now .Before the repair it seemed hot and when took out the dipstick the oil exploded up so had to put it back in quick .Since the repair doing the same thing which does not seem right,the gearbox company said it was ok ,dont believe them. I checked the oil while cold,as i pulled the dipstick out sounded like air escaped ,oil seemed to be in the middle of the range ,but how can i check when hot if keeps splurting out and losing oil .Any advice apreciated.

Is there any check balls in the valve body channels, on either side of the plate, that I should be concerned about?

Hi Gary, my 2017 Explorer 2.3L with the 6F35 has a delayed reverse engagement, only when cold. No forward shifting problems or check-engine light. Could you advise on what I might check for? If this might be a problem with the valve body, I'm good doing that myself. But splitting the case and rebuilding the trans would be a stretch for me. I am so pissed because it only has 75k miles, and I serviced the fluid at 30k and 60k, and I treat this thing like gold. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Doing engine r&r on '13 Escape 98k and found the stator support splines almost gone. All knife edged. Is that common on this trans? I'd never seen that before.

Can you please provide some guidance? My 2014 ford escape 1.6 liter front wheel drive with 180000 miles will occasionally loose power stilghly when acceleraring, I pulled the following code : P0741 and PO744. I changed the transmission fluid; I did 4 drains and refills. I also changed the valve body and updated the valve Solenoid strategy number and the solenoid body ID. I resetted the learned transmission adaptation but the issue is still there. Is the torque convertor out?

I have a 2016 Ford Escape 1.6 4wd it will shift fine for about 20 minutes then will start whining and slipping and eventually stop moving. I can shut it off and it’ll be okay for a few more minuets. Any ideas on what it could be?

Question? Is the metal gasket that from the valve body side pan meant to be reused. To be clear, the pan gasket not the plate with 30 holes in it ?

Hi Gary. I repaired a 2014 Escape that had extensive sheet metal damage but also damaged both plug ends on the trans. I was able to repair the outside plug, but tearing into the trans would have totaled the vehicle. RTV and a prayer was about all the insurance company would authorize. It looks like a new valve body was the only way to properly repair the vehicle. A hard lesson learned by my boss.

It's been about a month now, so far no complaint from the customer, knock on wood. The shop would have to either buy the vehicle, or pay for the trans repair. It was within $100 of being a total loss. And I am sure the customer wouldn't want to drive a salvage branded vehicle. But, if the insurer found out about the trans repair, the shop would be in trouble. Not a good situation to be in as a technician or as a shop owner. Better to declare the vehicle a total loss from the start and not wait until hidden damage rears it's ugly head.

Hi Gary I own a 2010 Ford Escape with a delay on reverse (a 2 seconds delay), The day I bought it it was leaking transmission fluid from the axle seal, I repaired that and later I found a bottle of some cheap tranmission fluid on the back cargo area, an incompatible fluid, i think the previus owner was filling the tranmission with that. Could be the incorrect type of transmission fluid the cause of delay on reverse or be something else? Thank you.

Hello Gary, I just drained and refilled a 2011 Escape 6F35 with fluid that smelled like burnt stuff and looked a lot like what came out this one. Afterward, I found out that there is a complaint on trans operation. You helped me with a 6T40 not long ago, this looks very similar. An area I am curious about is the solenoids. On the 6T40, the TECHM was a recommended replacement item. This does not have the TCM, but does have all the solenoids. Transtar has a replacement for $720, twice as much as the kit. If I am not seeing a control valve related issue, would you still replace them? I have seen aftermarket solenoids that could be replaced one by one for a lot better price. Also curious if beyond sensors and torque convertor are there any other items that you would recommend replacing.

​@@GaryFerraro Thanks for the advice! All went relatively smoothly today, my friend and I swapped out all of the internals to the good case. Check this out, so we opened up the bad one and the same exact piece you broke off in this video was already broken off inside of the transmission. Before disassembly, the original trans was making a horrible grinding noise while idling, struggling to go into any gear etc. At times it would drive just fine. Eventually, we pulled the trans and today that is what we found. No idea if perhaps we could have just taken that broken bit out and gotten it back to normal. We went ahead and swapped everything over. There was a ton of metal in the bad trans anyways and the filter was very gummed up, especially the magnet. So I think it is safe to say that area of the transmission's casting is incredibly weak. Any ideas as to how this could have broken without any prying? Keep in mind we simply popped the bellhousing off and low and behold that piece was floating around in there. Cheers, I hope this thing runs fine now...

OK so I put 5 quarts in cold and it didn't come out of the fill hole. Put the cap on and then test drive for 15 minutes. Came back leveled car. Dumped put at least a half a quart or more, but the fluid was still pretty black. Should I be concerned? It's shifting great much better then before the fluid change.

I've owned and driven a ton of vehicles with this trans and every one of them has a harsh 2-3 shift. Just rebuilt one that was having issues, found the clutch support and the 456 drum had some wear and the 35R clutches we're scorched. Filter was plugged up and the valve body showed signs of wear. Was higher milage so it got a full rebuild of clutches and steels, molded pistons, valve body, torque converter and pump. I noticed after the rebuild the 2-3 shift was perfect. We always had a trans tech so I never had to do them up until about a year ago and we don't see a bunch of trans issues at the dealer that require a full tear down. My question is, what component causes the harsh 2-3 shift on these tranny's? I've also driven some that have a torque converter clutch that slips and locks repeatedly under a load like when pulling a hill that nobody seems to complain about. If I command it locked it stays locked but under PCM control they lock and slip almost as though it's being controlled to do so. Appreciate any answers or advice. Love watching your tear down videos. You make it look so easy but you've been in so many of them. I am zip tying clutch packs together so I don't mix up parts as I'm removing them cause I don't do enough to recognize them by just looking at them. Haha

Larry Walden There is a manual you can follow. A company called ATSG puts out pretty good repair manuals to follow along with. I have been rebuilding since mid 80,s

My 2013 Fusion has this transmission and yesterday it slipped a couple of times while driving it on residential streets. It was the first time it has done it after 5 years of use and 90,000 miles traveled. It was a very hot day, so it may have been overheating. But there were no warning lights on the dashboard and it worked flawlessly on the freeway. I'm a bit disappointed, but have hopes that it's just something minor. I flushed and refilled the fluid about 4 months ago and it was working great. I'm scheduled to take it in for service on Monday, so we'll see what the issue really is, if Ford can actually find any faults. I'll keep ya'll posted.

I had the local Ford dealer checked it out and the tech couldn't find any faults, codes or issues with the transmission. Both the tech and the service manager test drove it and didn't notice anything abnormal. They offered to reflash the module that controls the transmission, but they warned that just as it could make things better, it could also make them worse. So, their advise was to keep driving it until the issue returns or gets worse. Only then will they be able to really troubleshoot it. I'll keep a close eye on it and will take it to another shop to get a second opinion as soon as I feel something's off.

I am going to have an aux transmission cooler installed. At the time the issue happened, the weather was unusually hot and I had been driving around in a very hilly area. That explains why the slippage can't be reproduced under normal driving conditions. I figured it's a cheap way to possibly extend the life of the transmission without having to perform a full rebuild or major repairs.

9/2/2018 Update: I took the car to a trusted transmission repair shop near my home last month. Like the techs at Ford, the guys at the shop could not find any faults or codes with their diagnostic tools. I told the owner the issue and the work I wanted him to perform on the car. After taking a look at the trans, the owner of the shop said that the cooling system on the Fusion is adequate and installing a cooler would require a lot more customization than a standard system, which in his opinion was not worth the cost. Instead, he advised that the transmission fluid be flushed and replaced with high-grade ATF and fricition modifier. I took his advised and agreed to have the service done. After about a month of driving, I can say that the transmission feels smoother and more composed. It handles the shifts without hesitation. I know it's still early, but if it continues to function like it has over the past few weeks, I'll be very, very happy. Oh, and the owner advised me to have the transmission serviced every 25-30K miles. I couldn't agree more. I think my mistake was waiting until the odometer hit 85,000 miles to replace the ATF, though Ford's manual states that the transmission service should be done at 150,000 miles. But I've learned my lesson.

It's a common problem with this transmission. The bushing wears out and eventually causes a leak at the case. They have an updated wider teflon bushing that has a notch for the feed hole in the case. It can be replaced in the car, but you'll need the correct tool to draw the bushing out. If the shop does not have the tool then I wouldn't let them try because you can damage the case. The tool is pretty slick! Just make sure you key the new bushing in so you don't block the feed hole.

Also, NO REVERSE unless I shut it off, wait a few seconds and restart. Drained some sample fluid, saw no metal. CLOGGED FILTER? TORQUE CONVERTOR? Or same issue(s) you just pointed out?

Looks like I may have torn down the transmission for nothing. LOL. After I tore it down I remembered that when I heard the whine/light grinding noise was with the car running in Park, so it could only mean a few things. TORQUE CONVERTER! DAM!! Rookie mistake!! If you shake the convertor , you can hear the exact noise it was making while running. I think the convertor actually has clutches inside it? I got lazy and just trusted the convertor was good because no converter codes. Anyways, the trans looks good besides the 3-5-R steels are pretty bad. I was fully expecting to see a dam broken snap spring and wave steel on the 3-5-R because it was slipping bad going into 3rd. But it was also not going into Drive or Reverse after it was warm. Right now, I have the valve body apart and don't see any issues. I looked at "refurbished" valve bodies on Ebay, but I know dam well they can't just re-machine valve body like that. They would have re-size all the pistons to make it work! Their obviously sell old cleaned-up ones! You were right about the filter...My filteris is logged pretty bad with light metallics. I'm in the process of trying to find clearance specs on the oil pump to make sure the pump is still good. The pump has some light scoring in the side channel because of some burs on the outer ring gear. I'm thinking he convertor may have kicked the bucket because of low oil pressure from the pump or clogged filter. But, I never saw any codes for any low pressure or solenoid issues. Maybe the trans oil cooler is just too small or maybe because it is mounted on top of the trans instead of in the front grill area it lets convertor and trans get too warm. This thing does have 160kmi on it though. My local trans supplier said they would have to order the 3-5-R steels. So, I'm just gonna use my green or yellow 3M Rolloc disc to scuff them out and give them back a little grip. I will replace the wave steel though, they have that in stock. This is a budget build and just needs to last a couple thousand miles. Thank for your videos and responses. This was was my first transmission rebuild and I've haven't felt this satisfied trying to fix something in a very long time! Hopefully this bad boy works when I put it back in!!

@@GaryFerraro Hi Gary. Thanks for the reply. Here is a 'brief' summary of my issue: 1) Trans was experiencing slight, but constant hesitations particularly in the higher gears. 2) Eventually, I got a 'Trans Fault' warning. When this ccurred, the 'S' option for shifting was disabled & also the trans would only stay in the current high gear. After these incidents occurred, I would pull over & turn off the vehicle. Even a short break would help & then the car would drive normally. * Note: I have a bluetooth scan tool, & the codes that resulted were consistently 'P0218' & P1783 - Overtemp codes. I would sometimes get a P0731 (Solenoid) & a P0420 (Cat. Converter). However, these codes don't re-appear with the same frequency as the Overtemp Codes. 3) After a few weeks of this, I experienced the 'final Trans Fault' (LOL). This occurred at highway speed, after which the car would not stay at speed & had to be pulled over. The vehicle did not want to run after that, as it indicated that it was overall, too hot. Cooling down did help, but the trans now was making a loud 'whining noise'. It would go into gear & move around for very short distances, but it wouldn't move & indeed shifting into a 'D' or 'S' forward gear would do nothing except move slightly into reverse. * Note: I was suspecting that there was some obstruction of the transmission cooling 'circuit'. Indeed, the P0218/1783 codes seem to indicate this as a cause. 4) I had the car towed home & decided to drain the fluid, pull the (tiny) cooler & see if there were any signs of obstructions/debris. Nothing in this was found, but the fluid (about 12000 miles old) was quite dark. It did smell & looked old before its time, but did not seem burnt. 5) I have since (in my infinite wisdom), pulled the Trans & have just gotten the case apart: My suspicion regarding obstructions seems to have been confirmed -I have found lots of red-brown plastic debris in the 'vertical pan' & into the area where the chain & differential reside. I found no metallic debris other than (what seems to be) the normal maetallic stuff on the filter's magnet. BTW, regarding the filter: The oblong hole which sucks the fluid into the filter was clogged by this plastic. Heck, it was melted onto the opening so much that very little fluid could actually pass. This seems to be a smoking bullet for the cause. It is so 'amazing' that I would like to send you a photo. My concern is that the Over-temp conditions caused sever damage to other components, esp the pump & Torque Converter. What would your experience suggest?

That fluid looks positively BLACK, like crude oil. Just hazarding a guess, but that fluid looks like it was in there for a good 90,000 miles or so, if not longer.

I'm 10 days with the car stopped without having a correct diagnosis. Sometimes he does not enter some marches, but then he returns to normal. Sometimes I hear the sound of an oilless oil pump and the marches are starting to take a long time to get through. This happens more when the car is hot.

sounds like your screen is clogging up, the noise you may hear is the pump starving for oil

I have come to a conclusion that this 6f35 has designed flaw on the valve body which can damage the transmission,so I bought 2015 mkz with bad transmission with banging reverse and harsh shift,I did a research and found a kit called transgo shift kit for 6f35,I decided to order valve body from eBay and followed directions from transgo on how to install it,finally did with the new valve plate,believe me my car shifts like my 2018 Mazda 6 with no hiccups,I used a synthetic transmission oil..I’m so glad I can do this and remember to use ids to update the transmission or new valve body id or it will bang,stop overhauling this transmission for an expense

Hello Gary im working on a 2013 fusion 6f35 and it has a hard reverse and forward engagement only when it gets hot(i did the clear tables before).1st gear thru 6 gear are perfect also kick down feels too hard when I'm on 6 gear.i replaced valve body-solenoids and output speed sensor and same thing.no codes also motor and transmission mounts.what it could be the problem???it could be adaptation issue?? I drove it like 200 miles

Could be, if codes are present in transmission or engine, adapt will not work. What type of scan tool do you have? you replaced the valvebody and solenoids? this is original problem?

I have the same problem with a Ford escape 2014 no fault codes and disassemble the valve body and everything is perfect also change the ATF but the vehicle has hits between the changes, when I am parked and the lever goes from N - R is feel a strong blow. I already change the motor supports but everything remains the same.

Nice. But why 360p?
