I have a 96 Taurus automatic about 109,000. It was running fine until today. The car started making a very load humming sound from the front end, and will not shift into 4 gear. Also it will not go over 40 miles an hour. Transmission fluid is fine. Transmissions places say, master cyclinder is housed in the transmission case and that has gone bad 400-700 repair. The other shop says the tranny is gone 700 to 1200 repair. Where is the master cyclinder? the breaks are fine, however the gas pedel now is pushing your foot up when you push it down at around 35 MPH.
