Hi all in sport trac land....I have a pickle on my hands! I have an 01' with the 5r55e tranny, who decided last week to start flashing the "OD/OFF" light whilst I was driving down the road. Well...before I looked on here...stupidly I might add....I took it to my local ford dealer who ran 80 bucks worth of tests to see what the deal was! They didnt find anything! 80 bucks up a wild horses ass! well anyway my problem is now that I think I know what the deal is...even though the tranny really isnt showing any prominent signs of failure...what course of action do I take? Should I just drive it till it poops? then fix it. or should I trade it on something else....(its almost paid for:angry Is there a simple fix for this ....or does this require a new transmission? If it does require a new transmission....what would be my best course of action considering money is tight and I dont want to get screwed by ford or a local trans shop doing the repairs...are there any aftermarket trannys that will work...or is there a good place I can get a rebuilt one for cheap?
Thanks for any help...
