Hello again folks, thanks to everyone on all the info I've gotten here so far. I hope I'm not beating the solenoid issue to death, but...
I've got an '03 V8 Sport with almost 69K miles. I've replaced all the plugs and coils and don't have any more driveability issues (knock on wood). I'm preparing her for a 3000 mile road trip this May and wondered if it might be a good idea to replace the shift soleniods.
I found a good deal on eBay ($200) for a new genuine Ford part. I haven't had the "E" message on the transmission readout but I have had harsh engagements periodically along with abnormal shifts, usually when I'm really babying the throttle.
I planned on dropping the trans pan and replacing the Fluid/Filter with Motorcraft so I figured I might as well replace it while I'm in there.
What do you think?
