I’m having problems with my transmission. When driving it has a hard time shifting into 2nd gear. I run about 4000 rpm going 25 mph. I have to take my foot off gas then put back on to make it shift. My o.d. light is blinking as well. I brought it to Oriellys for code scan and what it comes back with…

You have a transmission problem. A rather serious one, very likely. This is not all that uncommon on a Ford Escape, unfortunately. Google “05 Ford transmission problems” for a reference. You need a transmission specialist. Look for a local independent. Stay away from the big chains like AAMCO, Pep …

So you don’t think it might just need a transmission flush and filter?? I looked up what the reading said and it came back with codes p0732 and p0734 for that read out. I don’t want to waste the $200 on flush and filter though if that’s not it. Where would you recommend taking it?? Pep Boys was sup…

Your description of the way it drives it sounds like to me it is shifting from 1st to 3rd. The one thing 2nd and 4th gear has in common is the band, the ba…

Thanks I’m glad I came on here to see first.

Both codes indicate the input speed is greater than the specified RPM between the rotational speed input sensor and the transmission output speed sensor. This indicates that the transmission is slipping. One of the first things recommended to try is change the transmission fluid. Old/dirty transm…

[image] jennifer.brolin: code scan and what it comes back with is incorrect ratio 2 and four. What does this mean and what should I do?? A little info on how automatics work might be helpful… Inside there’s a series of “gear sets” , each of which has two inputs, yielding 2 x 2 = 4 different …

These CD4E transmissions are good, but very finaky. You MUST change the fluid every 30 thousand miles, and it MUST be Mercon V.

I learned the hard way. As I assume you have as well
