In this video, i show what happened to this transmission for it to loose reverse (and 3rd and 5th too) shortly after i rebuilt this transmission. First time i had this happen with a new drum. Thanks for watching.
I keep a spare built 3,5,R o/d assy and center support ready for the next unit. I have saw the 6F50s break that drum. I also had a CDF on a 10speed peel the snapring groove off C-clutch. It had just been replaced a few months ago. Defective parts.
Gary, great video as always. Hopefully your supplier on that drum will make it right for you. But still sucks to have a comeback for a hard parts failure on a part that you replaced.
Hello Gary! I have 2016 Ford Kuga equipped with 2.5 atmo engine and 6f35, it is Escape analog for Europe. It has 200000 km now. Should I disassemble it and make preliminary repair , before it finally breaks down? Now it works OK, no major issues. What is your opinion? Thanks in advance
Hi Gary, recent Subscriber here, may I ask you a question about 1 of your videos please that is off topic and 7 yrs old please. The A413 Teardown, and it concerns where you personally order the Diff. Bat wings from please (contact info requested as I would like to order a pr. For my 84 Daytona), I do know that Diff pin working out can cause extreme damage, though I have yet to have that issue street or strip, I just want to avoid future issues if I can. Ty in advance for any info you can give me please, thanks! BTW, love your videos.
Great info Gary. Am currently working on a 6f35 as well. New clutch, converter, seals & piston seals. Took the car for a test drive but doesn't have 1st. Put it to D and it goes to 3rd 😅 any leads?
Gary, where I work we get a lot of late model Fusions on trade-in. I notice harsh-delayed 2-3 shifts on many of them. Is the seal wear on that drum the cause of this? Thanks.
Can you please provide some guidance? My 2014 ford escape 1.6 liter front wheel drive with 180000 miles will occasionally loose power stilghly when acceleraring, I pulled the following code : P0741 and PO744. I changed the transmission fluid; I did 4 drains and refills. I also changed the valve body and updated the valve Solenoid strategy number and the solenoid body ID. I resetted the learned transmission adaptation but the issue is still there. Is the torque convertor out?
does the fusion have the cooler warmer?I ask because Iam rebuilden a 2014 ford escape and was curious if u replace the cooler warmer for the transmission fluid? Also do you mod the valvebody any like installing the sonnax zip kit or transgo?
Not sure how to delete, but its not me, first time i have seen this myself. I build maybe one of these a week, i always change this drum, every rebuild
First time, every rebuild gets a new drum. I do a lot of these units,first time drum broke, when i got the call, i couldn't believe the car lost reverse
@@GaryFerraro this might be the start of that part failing. Whoever makes them or is likely to produce the aftermarket version needs that broken part sitting on someone's desk.
There are natural stresses a bare block of alum. alloys goes through during forging processes, that can stress one part, and not the very next part new or old blade, and even 1 thou off, and that snap ring area is pretty thin to begin with to start, no matter how careful one is inserting that ring, it is stressed going in a will snap down into place with some force as you ride it around and down into place, and there is that final seating shock. It lasted 4 months and boom it broke. They replaced it. But it would be a good deal for the mfg. to inspect it to see if it is a design or mfg. issue. And if it can safely be improved upon.
