Re: 1998 V6 3.0 Auto Transmission shifting issues
Being a 1998, it should be OBD2 meaning there could be some codes stored in the computer which relate to the transmission. A basic code reader won’t be able to read these, only engine/emissions codes. I *think* a scangauge unit could do this but you need to check. If it’s the converter solenoid you may have to pull the transmission anyway (I presume) so you may want to consider a freshening anyway. Best bet is to get it checked if you don’t know enough about it, like me. Maybe it’s time for a manual?
On a side note, prior to my Ranger I swore I’d never have another Ford automatic after having three go out from under me shortly after purchase. My 4-speed won’t be in for long, A 5.0 conversion will make sure of that.
