Why do I have hard shifts in my transmission?
Why do I have hard shifts in my transmission?
The materials used to build a transmission are chosen due to the way they interact with the transmission fluid. The wrong materials and fluids together will cause too much friction, resulting in hard shifts. It could also cause low friction and sloppy shifts.
When does the transmission shift to a different gear?
When the Engine Control Module (ECM) or Transmission Control Module (TCM) determines it is time to shift to a different gear, (or when the driver manually shifts the transmission), electrical pulses cause the appropriate shift solenoid valve to open.

What was the weight of a 1980 Lincoln Town Car?
In the interest of fuel economy and handling, the Panther chassis reduced weight by up to 1400 lbs compared to the 1970-1979 full-size Lincolns. As the lightest full-size Lincoln in 40 years, the 1980 Continental/Town Car came within less than 200 pounds of the curb weight of the compact-sized Versailles.
Why does my transmission shudder when I Turn on the car?
This occurs because the transmission fluid is contaminated and the contaminates, being suspended in the fluid, prohibit good pressure contact between the transmission plates when they are applied. Routinely servicing the transmission prevents this from occurring. Left unserviced, the condition will worsen.
What causes a late 4th gear shift in a car?
But Anyway..there is a throttle valve cable that runs from the top of your engine to the transmission that affects shift time and feel. If it’s out of adjustment…just a little to tight..it can cause late hesitating 4th gear shifts also.
