Transmission noise
 
I have a 2000 f150 v6. I have been reading everything I can. But I cannot find what I am looking for.
I replaced clutch and all parts related to the clutch back in December.
When the auto parts store looked up fluid they gave me automatic transmission fluid. I thought that seemed odd.
Anyway now my transmission makes an odd noise in 4th gear. Especially when I press the throttle all the way.
So I am wondering what the noise could be?

Thanks to all who have ideas? I have replaced many clutches but this is a first.

Not a fix. Snake oil won't do anything except mask the problem. If your trans is making noise, have it looked at by a real shop. It'll leave you on the side of the road and you'll wonder why.

i agree however i dont know of and have never used a shop before. i have always done everything myself. clutches and all those parts, timing chains and anything else that goes wrong.

Worth a shot, if it's on the way out what have you got to lose. Best of luck!!

I'd get the wrong fluid out of it and put the right manual trans oil in it.

i have three quarts of the right fluid in and one of the lucas. do you think that the one quart of lucas will be bad for the transmission?
