Question 99 explorer trans. problems

our explorer is experiencing trans. slip on occasions. More when cold. Mechanic has recommended rebuilt trans. @ $3500. His Opinion overhauling is not worth the trouble, will fail again. Vehicle only has 78,000 miles. Any suggestions?

We would need more info to give you a opion.
Has it ever beeen serviced and the trans checked out? Or did they just say replace it?
Also on price call ford dealer and price out a ford factory rebuilt.

Re: 99 explorer trans. problems

If the fluid has been serviced in the past, I suspect the tranny is going out on you. If it WAS serviced recently, I suspect the wrong fliud (check the owners manual). If you don't think it has ever been serviced, shame! I guess I would just drop the pan and replace filter and fluid. You have the option of doing a flush and fill, but you risk dislodging some crud, could kill it for sure.
