I wish I didn’t trust the owners manual about changing the trans oil at 150k miles. I got some shudder going on at 58k and believe it wouldn’t have happened if I changed it at 30k. ☹️

Mine shifts fine with the shifting stick, however, when in drive there's over revving and the transmission is not shifting properly through the gears in the transmission. I but the car in 2023, and the previous owners didn't tell us when the transmission fluid was changed. Could that be the main issue and not a Solenoid sensor having went out?

this may be my problem as well, I just replaced all new parts, and suddenly this noise started happening. UPDATE this was my problem as well, installed new timing components and didn't make 3 hrs. Faulty part. Ty for this video!

My 2013 Ford Explorer 3.5L V6 started to have problems around 155,000 miles. Then a few months later the shudder was getting scary! It would happen around 3rd and 5th gear. Anyway, after reading every forum about this problem, someone said, add a 2 ounce bottle of Lubegard Instant Shudder Fixx. I was skeptical because after all it feels like a mechanical problem. I'm sure it is a mechanical problem. But, trying to save money and to delay the inevitable TC replacement, I added the 2 ounces of the fixx potion. I drove around a few miles and most of the shudder was gone and then saw much smoother/better shifting. In the end I believe that NOT changing out the transmission fluid every 30K will lead to these problems. The auto mfrs need to stop with the BS about "lifetime fluids". Lubricants breakdown and need periodic replacement to extend the life of the vehicle! My Explorer at 163, 000 miles now. The shudder is mostly non-existent at this time. Let's see how it is in the next few months!

Thanks, going to install a camping bed with this knowledge

Never woulda looked there. Thanks

Awesome! Thanks for the video. This technique also works on 1999 Honda Accord.

He cut out the most important part of the video … how he actually got it off

Thank you so much this helped

Dont call the level plug the drain plug

Matchmarks placed pre-repair failed, so im here. Have a general idea to count teeth on both rack & steering wheel, but trying to avoid that

Great video! I also had an issue with the transmission cooling lines, so I had to remove those. Afterwards, I ended up being able to move the side cover around more to where I could get to everything decently. I could actually get to it from underneath with both hands.

Hey did you get a flashing check engine light with this problem? my explorer is making a similar noise, however I have a misfire on cylinders 1,2 and 3. But the car still runs and drives and can do 70 mph no problem. Do you think it’s too late and the valves are already bent?

I need to change the timing chains and guides on my 06 explorer but I’m very intimidated by it all. I’m very mechanically inclined but it just seems like a lot of work. Uggh

I have the same problem, but something, for some reason broke the head cover on driver side

added if the plastic pieces break off and float around. that's why the ford 3v v8 needs to get fixed as soon as noise happens since the parts on that engine drop into oil pan and often block the oil pickup destroying the engine .haven't heard if the 4l does the same the shop i talked to says engine pull 20 hr labor and the trucks condition don't warrant the investment my health precluded this work now but if truck was in better shape i install a factory rebuild i look into what was shown here as for parts i say buy that part directly from ford china counterfeit rotorcraft parts are common . i read aftermarket tensioners for the 3 valve v8 are terrible

Did u have to drive it before the abs light went away?

do you need to take out CV joing being you not you not taking out the cover all the way just separating

Reset adaptive learning witn forscan or higher end scan tool

Do u really need to put it back on ? I'm dealing with the same problem

Does any one know if it’s the same for the 4door

I have a 2005 Chevy classic. NOT a Malibu Classic. It has the 2.2 ecotec IT IS A 4 cylinder. I can see in this video that this one is a v6. There is limited info on the Chevy classic cause it was not a common vehicle. Although it looks exactly like a Malibu. I am trying to positively locate where the transmission pressure control solenoid is for 2005 Chevy Classic. ? I read that on most of transmissions the pan can be dropped and accessed there. The 04 to 07 Malibu shows access thru the side of the tranny like in this video. Looking for a video for my application. I appreciate the help.

Something something porche timing chain something something

How many miles did you have on that car at that time and any other issues with that have you had on that car.

Thank you sir 🙏

Are you in ohio

Thank you so much!

Just completed this repair with help from this video. Solenoid A was burned, solenoid B seemed OK. Good thing as with 2 floor jacks and 2 jack stands and me trying everything with all motor mounts disconnected, I could only get the side cover to 3 1/2 inches or so gap, way less than yours and was barely able to get the top solenoid, A out. Was going to change both but didn't want to risk the big fat chance of losing a clip into the tranny somewhere or just changing the one solenoid A, that's what I did. Must be what being a dentist feels like. But it appears to run perfectly. Thx.

w video

I am in Houston or do you work as a mechanic how much would you charge me to do my 2005 Cobalt

By Ford parts not aftermarket, Price wise its actually cheaper and Ford updated parts hold up 3 times better

So I pretty much gotta take the casing off to get to these? How much you think a shop would charge me to do this…

This has definitely been a very helpful video! Best one I’ve found for the part I need to replace!

Thanks for the video

Thank you

I have a shudder n my 2017 Chevy Impala. I've startred driving in manual mode which eliminated 90% of the shudder.

Very helpful, thanks for for sharing

Perfect, took the worry out of it for me. Thanks from Tyler Texas

The only thing I would add is on my 2011 HHR I had to unbolt the ABS and also the plastic drive shaft ring that is on the inside has to be put back in place. Excellent video.

My G6 Manual says to only replace the trans fluid every 50,000 miles. I did my first change pretty late at 133,000. Car has been fine since then, i have had occasional hard shifts for years. But no codes. My pan gasket is bad now so I have to replace it. I have put less than 20,000 miles on the car in 4 years so im not too happy about changing the fluid again so soon. It has 150,500 now. I really hate messing with the transmission. It makes me nervous.

Mine making this exact noise, to a T. I don’t really want to pull the engine. I was gonna sell the whole car for cheap. I believe the guides have prob been broke for a long time and I’ve just continued driving it until it started making this noise about a year ago. But is it worth trying this first?

Why isn't Ford on the hook for these crappy transmissions? Seems like it is quite common. My 2015 Expedition has had a light shudder for a year now. I'll never buy another Ford product.

Bro gm is so dogshit at design lmao

Nicely done. Many thank's!

Hello I switched out the solenoids and codes are gone but the car goes forward in reverse and neutral. It still does go forward in drive. The fluid is topped off and I checked at the transmission and can see the shift linkage moving the transmission though gears. When it's in reverse the reverse lights do come on. I've replaced the transmission filter aswell. Before doing the shift solenoids the car worked properly just had the code. And when I replaced solenoids I replaced all 3 even though only my first one was bad. Can anyone point me in the right direction of what to check, I'm assuming has to be a hydraulic issue but I've seen online this has happened to others after this procedure but no posted fixes or causes. Please help 🙏🏽

Did your vehicle make a rattle sound before you changed the oil sensor like as if it was not dispersing oil to the lifters?

So i just had a similar sound start when coming to a stop off the highway. Its constant and timed with the engine rpms, coming from the drivers side front of the engine, would it be worth redoing the front only or should i just pull the motor and be done with it. 2001 sport trac, 4.0 sohc, any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Man, I felt like I was watching myself struggle to work on something, lol. Thanks for taking the time to film this replacement. What issue were you having to cause you to need to change it? My wife drives a 2011 Edge and we keep smelling raw gas in the garage. Ruled out the Valve purge filter as it seems fine. When I was trying to gain access to the solenoid, I could get wisps of the gas smell in that area I was working in, so that is probably the cause of my gas smells.

Just pull the sprocket and chain off of the balancer. Problem solved.

Mmm,
