I have owned fords. E4OD enough said. The 2004.5-2007 48re in my truck was killed by the bad "Transmission throttle valve actuator" In other words the electronic shifter was shifting in and out of gear under load and smoked the bands and torque converter. This was a Mercedes Improvement, Is my understanding. I drive it hard and it gets a lot of washboard gravel miles. My best guess is this washboard is what killed the TTVA. I was told by the shop which builds these transmissions by the hundreds a year. It was not a part they ever replace. One a few years ago. Was the story I got. Got a check in the mail this week from the shop. Rebate on TTVA mark up. 3 techs now know how to diagnose a failing TTVA so somebody learned from my suffering.


The anti American Constitutional party (Democrat). Wants to dismantle your rights, limiting every aspect of your constitutional rights. Death by 1000 cuts is the tactic. Each cut bleeds constitutional rights to control you. Control is the goal.
