1998 f150 4.6L engine with 108Km's. Was driving in heavy rain, put truck into reverse and then drive when I heard a loud "whistling" sound. It would go away when I put the truck into park. Slowly drove home and truck was studdering when in 1st and 2nd gears somewhat.

Next day, everything was seemed fine, transmission would shift smoothly through all the gears, however, the day after, I found it wouldn't shift from 2nd to 3rd gear....would rev high as if it was in neutral. The transmission fluid is cherry red and doesn't smell burnt. Any suggestions on what it may? A transmission rebuild??

Sounds like you lost the torque converter. They can go all at once. The trans usually starts showing symptoms over a period of time before it breaks. I would start by dropping the pan and look for fine pieces.

Thanks for replying Marc. I will definately look at torque converter. Just my luck with such low mileage on truck.
