2001 Lariat Auto Transmission problem?
Greetings.
My first time here.
Own a 2001 Lariat from new, its always been good to me up to now.
Recently Im having an intermitent problem - Half the time the truck drives fine, no problems.
But other times I start her up, idles fine, Into drive fine, then clunk, clunk, clunk as I pull away , same in reverse, same even if I roll in neutral.
Sometimes it clears after a few seconds but today I got stuck.
Power still getting to the wheels ok but undriveable really.
Just had the tranny opened up, cant see no problems, mechanic suggesting that a chain in there may have stretched and may need replacing but he says he's guessing.
I live in Barbados so Ford mechanics non exsistent and parts must be bought in from the US (not cheap).
Any ideas????
Thanks.
