Ford Escape V6 Automatic Transmission Trouble

Change the fluid again, unless you used a flushing machine to do the change, WBMA. I'll bet you have some gunk messing things up internally. Tranny fluid is highly detergent and new fluid cleans the tranny. Flushing machines flush the tranny will new fluid to loosen the dirt and remove it before refilling the tranny.

Might be TV cable adjustment (from the throttle to the trans). If it is too tight it will cause harsh and late shifts. Too loose and insufficient trans line pressure will cause slipping and damage. Maybe they misadjusted this when they changed your fluid.

There is no cable.........

Check that the proper tranny fluid was used- my '02 calls for Mercon, but I know of a couple of people who put in (or had put in) Mercon V, and the two are not interchangeable or mixable. SC Tom

Gah, a computer controlled tranny....

Didja ever pull the codes?
