Re: Which car did you hate the most?
The Pontiac Aztec,UGLY!Ford electronic transmissions do have problems and I know one transmission shop that works on lots of them over GM and Chrysler transmissions.Plus they are horrible to diagnose for problems and their transaxles have lube problems burning up final drives and clutches.This transmission shop I know bangs their head against the wall when diagnosing a problem with a Ford transmission.In the E4ODs,have a piston in the valve body that sticks.You can put in them slamming them in with a hammer which move during a rebuild.In the vehicle is another story,it sticks and cause problems.There is an upgraded piston for this transmission.The transmissions in the dodge trucks are very bulletproof when rebuilt right and the transmission in the 1998 to 2004 intrepids and concordes are bullet proof also.Most yards do not get calls for the 1998 to 2004 intrepid/concorde transmission,they have problems with the speeds sensors and that is the only problem with them them.I am good with the 4l60Es,replacing the sunshells and doing one upgrade to the direct drum only.The direct drum has 5 black springs inside and there is one thing to do with them: THROW THEM AWAY!!!The restrict the clutches from floating and burn up clutches
