Outstanding video on HF35 Trans breakdown. I have just bought a 2014 Lincoln MKZ 2.0L FWD Hybrid with The Hf-35 xCVT trans and it is leaking out about 3qt, but the car drives great. Because of the leak the Transfer-shaft assembly (EG9Z-7H348-A) bearing and cup should be shot, but those parts only cost US $410 right now. Is it possible to put a rebuilt used HF35 eCVT or even a newer Ford 2017-up HF45 eCVT and not have to reprogram the power transfer unit? The only cable that comes out of both trans are the hi-voltage drive/regen motors and the low-voltage data cables (that reads both motors temp and speeds). From what I have read; the HF35 has no brain or need for VIN programming itself. I ask because my locale Lincoln Dealer just quoted me US $10,000+ to replace the HF35, recalibrate the Lane-departure system, and realign the wheels. Since I was not born yesterday and value my family's treasure, I figured I would ask an expert. The car is beautiful and still drives it just need seals and bearings but no trans shop in or near Chicago will touch these eCVTs due to Ford's EV service equipment requirments (an anti-static bay). I have removed FWD trans and replace clutches before and I am thinking of removing and rebuilding my own trans because of inflated dealer costs. Any help you can provide would be much appreciated "for eductional info only... lol". Thank you for your time, sir. BTW: Can you do a trans removal video on the HF35 and HF45? That would be amazing.

​@@baggz321 I wound up doing a nationwide search for my 2014 Lincoln MKZ Hf-35 xCVT and found only 2 used units with relatively low mileage. One had a broken part so I bought the one that was not broken. It cost $250 for ship it from CA to IL. One I had it in my driveway I opened it up to see the color of the trans fluid (remembering that my fluid was black). The fluid was almost new. Then I looked at the condition of the cups and bearings. They all shined like new money. The only task left was getting a qualified transmission shop to install it. HA ha ha! I though that would be the easy part. In all of Chicago with it's hundreds of transmission shops only one would do the work. I spoke with the manager and he said that they have never done a Lincoln MKZ but do Toyota Prius Taxis all the time (The two have a lot of similarities). Long story short for about $4K additional we now have an amazing "like new" 2014 Lincoln MKZ that gets almost 34 mpg city and 42 mpg hway. We love the feel of this simi-luxury car. Reminder: Ford wanted $9K and Lincoln wanted $14k for a new trans and the fault was poor gasket seal from the factory which caused a trans fluid leak. I still have the old working trans and only the regen bearings are warn (just like I though).

How many miles was this done at I have a 2014 ford fusion hybrid made before aug 2014 so the TSB is still up for my car

if this is the ford fusion hybrid transmission you should do a more detailed video, cause this transmission is really giving a lot of people headaches and the manufacturer is not doing anything about it. also Ill never buy any ford cars for the rest of my life, even if they comeup with the bestest car in the world

Are you going to give us any details on the vehicle(s) applicable?

where to get the bearings? NSK sucks any good laating replacements? maybe from 2020 models? new trans with 60k whining i wanna change the bearings but updated ones

What was the bearing size I have same issue.

Hi. Please help me with website sells all bearing set

Does the trans come out with the engine still in the car? Out the top or bottom?

Transmission issues? I have a 2013 hybrid and 2017 energi. The 2013 one is making some strange noises when I put it in reverse or in drive and release the brake. It used to be smooth and the 2017 one is smooth. Then a traction control and abs lights came on, took it to the dealer, they replaced a sensor. Now the lights are off, but the scratchy crunchy sounds are still there. Anyone had something like that before? I hope it's not the transmission, supposedly they are $4-8k to replace, so might be better to trade for a new car...

Where is this shop at? What is the removal,repair, Installation cost?

Anyone with this issue I was able to get the bearing from alibaba R37-7 is the bearing number. Goodluck
