1995 Lincoln Town Car 130,000 miles. My AODE is starting to misbehave. When downshifting under light-moderate throttle from 2 to 1 (for example, going uphill at low speed), the transmission feels like it goes into neutral and the engine revs freely. I have a hill near my house were I can reproduce this problem consistently. Backing off the throttle puts the tranny back in
2, and it pulls fine. I also occassionally detect some slip in 2, but I can't be sure whether it's normal converter slip or not.
The tranny is 100% OEM. Fluid and filter have been changed at 30K intervals, since I have owned the vehicle. Fluid level is in spec.
The car is in fantastic condition otherwise, so I want to get my AODE back to good. Any ideas?
