Hi folks,
Been awhile since Ive been on here; last night site was not working?
Anyways, As of last night my 2000 Lincoln LS V8 (111,111 miles) (No joke) has been having its problems. I went to leave work and it shuttered in 3rd & 4th gear and then refused to shift to 5th. With that being said, it threw a "check transmission" with "E" code.
Basically limp mode.. I turn car off and restart; I can drive a little bit. Without 5th gear im limited to 60MPH @ 3200RPM
Took it to reputable car shop, I know the guys. Hooked up computer diag tool. And pulled following codes:
P0731, P0733, P0734 & P0741 -- To do with bad gear ratio and to do with TCC valve stuck / bad clutch?
Transmission guy says It needs a rebuild and oil smells burnt... be $1700-1900 for a rebuild; without taxes. This is quite alot of cash in which I do not have at this time.
Per my research online, Ive seen people have same issue with 4th, 5th gear and it turn out to the bad solenoid packs and valve body springs.
Whats your guys opinions? All info and suggestions welcome.
