Followed your lead and solved my issue. Runs like new again at 180k!
Not sure if it was mentioned in the video but in case anybody is wondering, it's going to take you about 11 1/2 to 12 quarts of LV to get the trans filled back up 👍
Thanks for taking time to make this video!
Awesome video! Really enables the do it yourself guy, with the knowledge on video! Great job guys!
As always top notch how to video with great information, ARod you save us all time and money thanks for sharing!
I really appreciate that, thanks.
One last update. Got the shift solenoid pattern updated today and the truck is like brand new! Can’t thank you enough for making this a DIY repair!!!
Glad to hear my brothaaa
Outstanding. Great video and info!
Big A working remote!! Love it!! Great job brother!!!
Woowoo
My exact situation. Mucho thanko from the west side of the state!
YES!! 2015 250 6.7 with 189k miles on it and 3 NEW valve bodies later, I'm putting in a used 6R140 out of a wrecked truck with 65k miles on it. It has a 3yr or 36k mile warranty. The Clutches are gone. This, in my opinion and budget, is the most economical way to fix the problem. I plan on selling the truck in fall and buying a camper. I have a 2017 to pull the camper with. The bump has been getting worse the more I drive it
Got it put in and everything went easy, thanks to this video! Now sadly I have to limp it about 10 blocks to get the shift patterns reset. I do not have forscan.
Have a 2011 slamming into a couple gears on the upshift and downshift. Got a new valve body, will update when finished. Glad I watched this because I don't have a programmer.
I got a 2011 same problems did that fix it? Thank you!
Yeah, did that fix it?
??
He got crushed by the heavy ass transmission 😢
Yikes
Great video ARod thanks for sharing
Great video! I have a 2018 Powerstroke and my 1-2, 3-2, and 5-6 shifts are very hard. I’m going to try this valve body replacement and hope for the best
Did this solve your problem? I have the same shifts that are rough as well
Did you solve this?
@lukescott82 did it fix your problem. I'm having the same issues
Nice job. Would love to see a 10R140 drain and fill video!
Coming soon
ARod, great video as always and timely..... My 2012 with 181k on clock is having flairs going into reverse. Sometimes not and sometimes hard shifting and sometimes not. It is all over the place. I want to say it has even slow shifted from 1 to 2 or from 2 to 3. I normally am able to pause video and write down part numbers. I am going to need to do this to my truck and will need the valve body and seals that don't come with it. Anyway you could revisit your notes for us? Many, many thanks as always!
Ok
Replaced a valve body on a 2019 f350 drw 75k on it. my brothers truck bought it used and it was slammin from 1st to 2nd and downshifting it would slam too. new valve body new filter and some new fluid got it running soo smooth
Yeahhh babe
About how much did that run? I’m having same issue in my 2011 250, afraid to ask really 🤦🏻♂️
Good stuff 👏 👍🏻
Having the same issues on a 2018 F750 just up shift to 2nd and periodically downshift to 2nd the only gear acting up
10.9 mpg?
Mine has a somewhat harsh shift, I suspect at some point I’ll do this to mine… thanks for the content!
Great video. I'm surprised that only 3 bolts hold that valve body assembly in place. I looks kind of heavy for only 3 retaining bolts.
Well the Trans filter retainer bolts also retain the V/body to the case . I learned the hard way, remove the dipstick before installing pan and I also use an modified trans dipstick with a wiper on it to clean the tube of residual oil so I can get an accurate and faster read on the stick before starting the truck up. These are great transmissions.
@@rickszabo4312 Mind sharing where you bought (or how you modified) the dipstick ?
Arod, we replaced valve body and associated wiring harness today on 2019 F250. And now it won’t shift into reverse or drive. It’s like it’s staying in neutral. And we got numerous TCM codes such as P0885, P0773, and P0657 just to name a few. I’m guessing a fuse, relay or the TCM itself, but where would you look first based on this info. We were just replacing valve body for a hard shift from 1-2 and 3-2. Thanks so much for any info!
I did my valve body and programmed it with Forscan I bought the truck heavy used I run custom tunes bought all the big 3 use Ezlink but at low speed until transmission warms I still get a 3-4 harsh it’s pretty normal after that I’ve heard the early tucks had pump problems after sitting my truck Is a 2012 175K
I installed new o rings and the colored plugs torqued everything
Wipe KAM and Adaptives. Then N, R, N, D pausing for about 4 seconds in between until shift quality is acceptable. Then with the transmission at 185°F, drive the vehicle to 50 MPH with shifts at 1500 RPM. Continue until this is done 5 times. Then repeat the drive cycle with shifts occurring at 1900 RPM 5 times.
Yes, I’ve been there one too many times to remember this 😅
Also, I’ve had 2 valve bodies that had strategy codes that were not acknowledged by IDS or the database. Both from a custom builder. Neither valve body functioned correctly and the builder basically threw their hands up and blamed software. That was the last I had that trans in that truck. Back to an OEM unit and shifting as it should.
Thank you for this video🎉
Thanks for keepin it 💯
1-2, 3-2, and 5-6. All slam, depending on how I throttle or let off I can ease the violence of it. Glad I found your video
I’m right with you except mine doesn’t do anything out of the ordinary in 5-6 just 1-2 and 3-2 my truck is a 2012
Same exact way 1-2, 3-2 and 5-6 I ordered a revmax which is oem Ford valve body but tuned up. I also bought a better trans cooler so it can be air cooled as well. Should see regular temps but as you work the transmission harder it shouldnt get much hotter and if it does temps will drop fast as you are easier on the vehicle or cruising speed. Alsom got the deep trans pan for more fluid
@@gametlogging1942 did you get it installed? Fix your issue?
Having a similar issue with my '17. Rough shifting through many of the gears, both up and down. Truck has 154,000 kms (96,000 miles) on it. Truck is going into Ford on Thursday for diagnosis. Will report back once they troubleshoot. Using Forscan, I did a reset on the Adaptive Tables, as well as the TCM. No real change or improvement, it may have even made it worse in some cases.
what was the verdict? having the same issues on my 19 with 101k miles
Great help!!!!
You should wear scrubs you are more like a surgeon. Great video!
Good video
My 20, 10 speed does it, and the initial recall which my truck met . Ford denied me to have the transmission fixed. Ive got 171k miles and still going. She slips gears too every now and again.
Haven’t had to do anything in the trans as of yet. But I do have a hard shift from 1-2.
Due
Would it be prudent to flush the cooler before install? Can I drive it to a shop to do the update on the TCM? I believe mine is providing pressure to the Lockup clutch on the TC all the time, so I think one of the Solenoids has failed, or stuck. Thanks!
You’re awesome.
...thanks some guy
Will a bad valve body make your trans overheat, change almost everything on sec cooling system plus trans cooler and torque converter and still over heats but haven’t change valve body
Great video ! I can’t see my gears on the cluster no more and a week later I was going 70 and engine light came on, rpm went up and I started to loose speed I stop and turned my truck off. I didn’t see nothing wrong and I got on the highway Again nothing wrong but 30 minutes later it did the same thing . P0702 p0883 are the codes
Can anyone tell me how could I fix my problem
I put in the BD diesel line pressure solenoid in my 17, 6.7 6r140, do I have to program it at all, do you know?
So i got this part swapped and it still slams into gear but if i put the truck in manual mode shifts through gears fine what else could it be?
that battery corrosion though. hahahaha
Love the channel. I’ve got a 17 lariat I’ll be doing this soon. Do you need all the parts listed? The seals and o-rings ? Some of the parts seem redundant
Good afternoon. Thanks for this video! Very informative. Have you ever seen the valve body be responsible for a sudden downshift from highway speed to 1st gear?
Gosh I sure haven't, yikes
Can I do the software update stuff with a Foxwell Gt65plus scanner?
Just did my valve body...shifts great now, except the shift flare between 3-4 still exists! 😞
I did a valve body re&re with a new ford unit from the dealer in my 2016. It seems like it fixed the harsh 1-2 & 3-2 shifts for a few weeks and then came back just as bad as before.
I tried switching over to a different tuning company on the advice of many people and that only seems to have things even worse.
I was reading somehwere else that the harsh 1-2 3-2 could be attributed to the ABS pump/module giving bad info to the TCM. Has anyone heard of this?
ARod!!! Bro!!! Did you really do this in 15min? 🤯🤯🤯 You're amazing! 💪💪
On another note: on the live streams, we've talked about my 2020 F350 shifting hard. I received the following from my local dealership:
**Brian ....Ford has a procedure that is supposed ease the harsh shifts .... called an "Excellerated Break in Procedure".**
Any validity to this?
They're not lying to you there's definitely a procedure. It's actually a SSM if I recall correctly.
Thanks@@codyphillips48! I appreciate all that you guys do! I'll follow up with the dealership in the morning.
Hahahaha i wish. Codys on it
dude this could not have come at a better time. im getting these exact symptoms on mine. 1-2 up and downshifts. it was fairly intermittent before. i did a kam(i think thats the term) reset with my tuner hoping it was something electronic going on. its happening so much more now even after about a week or so of driving for it to relearn everything.
Time!
Install the Sonnax stitch kit.
You’re having a rough snatch or slam going into 2nd on both up and down shift?
@@Therealcamclark I get it mostly on the downshift, like a short jaunt through the development, it will upshift to third just before I let off and start slowing to a stop sign.. Then hard downshift to 2 and 1. Its just overall very odd because its entirely random, and only ever lasts for about a minute or two after starting it up after its sat for a few hours. Than it will shift fine. Almost like it has trouble building a pressure or something.
@@waynemurphy4715 does it fix the problem?
hi would this valve body fit on a 6r140 for a 2011 f250 xlt
Yes
On the 6r140 trans can somebody please tell me is it worth installing the pressure enhancing solenoid? My truck is tuned with x4 sct tuner canned tune.
I’m hoping the software update will help with the 10 spd hard downshift
Yes
Great video! Do you have a step by step using forscan instead of IDS or know of anyone who would?
I do not but we have been remoting in
My 2017 will shift harder than normal once in a while, but not often. Always when upshifting. It's like you let the clutch slip a bit then it grabs. Just a "bump" into the next gear. Maybe once or twice a month. Not sure if it means I am doomed or it's just expecting me to do something I'm not (maybe I let off the pedal a bit, or pushed it harder to get around somebody), but I am not worried yet.
Question though. Why did you replace the entire body? I thought we could open them and clean up the passageways and be good. Maybe that's only on older models though.
Not worth it, replace it plus a 2yr unlimited mileage warranty....SOLD
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod I did not realize that it was that time-consuming to do. Time is money, right? Hoping I can get 500k or more from mine, but we'll see!
For us old school guys; it would be interesting to know what is failing in these units. Would it be possible to dissect and repair the fault? Seems a shame to toss the entire assembly for one problem.
Probably more cost effective to replace then to tear down & piece back together
If I had to guess I'd suspect bore to valve (mechanical) interference delaying the required quick diversion of fluid flow. So in essence for a split second it may be applying pressure to two gears at once. In theory. This could be poor design (warping of the valve body), settled contamination from worn clutch material, pressure bleed over to name a few. I don't think it is an electrical issue with the solenoid.
Just a guess
...very good!!!!
This was my comment too.
From working on other hydraulic components, if it fails, it is usually a valve, not the valve body. These are more complex, but the channels and passages will not wear from fluid passing through them.
Changing the component is great, but I was hoping for full nerd out level testing to see which part wasn't doing its job anymore.
Would the scan tool be able to report the shift pressures real time to help diagnose this?
@FixItPleaseJ I'm here looking for the same thing. The valve body is like and engine. It's a fully serviceable part. It only takes an hour to disassemble/reassemble if you don't know what your doing and reading instructions. It can't be that hard to fix this issue if I could find out exactly what parts have failed. I tried replacing the accumulator pistons with new Sonnax parts but that didn't fix it.
Ya I have a 2016 f250 6.7 just bought is having this issue the dealership payed to have the manifold replaced in transmission but still has horrible shifting but if I put it in manual mode I can shift it through gears just fine its like the transmission dosnt know what to do
Hmm
Do you have a video on how to program the valve body using forscan?
No
If I do the work myself , where can I take it to get reprogrammed ? I usually do all the maintenance . 2019 f350 DrW slams from 5-4 .
Get forscan and do-it-yourself.
How do you get forscan? Is it just files to download onto a computer?
Hello. I have 2012 f250, leaked all transmission fluid and started acting up by not shifting properly. Filled it with fluid, fixed the leak and problem still exists. I recently replaced the solenoids ( all 7) and still no luck. Assuming at this point the body valve has to be replaced and it should be good, what’s your thoughts? Plus I need to take it somewhere to program it right? Thank you
Ummm
Can you confirm these two part numbers for one of the seals and tubes? Description shows BC37-7A248-E but web is showing BC37-7A248-A. Also BC37-7G199-A is showing as BC37-7G199-E. Thanks so much! Awesome video that I am hoping saves me thousands! I will report back. 2019 having the exact same issue...hard upshift from 1-2 and hard downshift from 3-2.
Got the exact same issue. Did the valve body fix it?
@@JCBourgeois-nd7is yes it fixed my issue. At first we didn’t think it did because the mechanic left of the main seal on the valve body and it wouldn’t pressure up. After they realized their mistake, the new valve body fixed it 100%.
Very nice. Love it when they go together smooth. What temp should a 6R operate at going down the road?
Mine typically runs in conjunction with the operating temp of the cooling system, 195ish.
Good info
When towing it's a bit higher
19 owner. Pretty solid at 199
Would this potentially fix a hard park to drive / drive to park clunk? All the sudden on our 2017 from p-d it clunks and I’ve gotten under the truck while my wife went from drive to park and it sounds like it’s coming right from the bell housing on the passenger side near the starter pretty much. Shifts like butter in all other gears otherwise.
I would reset the adaptive learn tables 1st
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Thank you. I’ll give it a try
@Jelani Lampkins I had both battery’s pretty much dead so I disconnected them and got new ones and then once I put the new ones in it started driving a hell of a lot better. Night and day difference. No more clunk also. Don’t know if it was the battery’s or if unplugging them for a while to allow the computer to reset did it. But other wise no issues since then.
Man I’ve got a gnarly shit 4-5 and 5-4 feels like a high-low shift, I’ll order a valve body and see if that helps. I’ve been working on this thing since I got it 4 weeks ago hopefully after its all done, it’ll be good for quite awhile.
Did your valve body replacement fix your issue?
Did this fix your hard shifts I’ve got the same issue
@@braydonyounge2039 yes it did
@@thejrayhjr yes it did
Hey. Great video!! Is it possible to drive it a few miles to a shop to upload the new serial numbers or is that a no no? Thanks in advance
I mean i suppose u cld
Do you think it would hurt the trans? Thanks for the reply
Most likely not, but probably gonna shit goofy
My 19 is doing the exact same thing at 6 to 5 sometimes 5 to 6. I’m at 155k. Haven’t had a flush yet. Should i do a flush first before being concerned? Wanted to go with Amzoil fluid.
Flush, ehhh no. Your probably gonna need like this video
Did that customer have any other issues prior to the up and down shifts? Just trying to figure out my random slam I'm reverse when going from park to drive.
Nope. Sounds like ur due
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod thinking so..
Getting ready to do mine tomorrow. Hammer shifting from 1 to 2 and down shifting. I have an ezlynk programmer so I assume I won't program the way you did, but with my o.b.1 Port programmer.
Good luck
I have an EZ Lynk as well. How did you go about putting the new info into the tranny? Did you use the EZ Lynk or do you have to use forscan?
I have ez link getting ready to do this how did u program it ???
Ezlynk aint gon a program that
Are you able to drive the truck without programming it (ie replaced valve body at home, have to drive truck to dealership for programming?)
Yeah
I have the same problem on my 2011. Started after I did a fluid change and also used Amsoil. I was thinking maybe a fluid flush using LV might remedy it. Thoughts?
I just replaced my valve body but I haven’t driven it yet, so I’ll let you know what the outcome is. I also went with Mercon LV fluid this time.
So my truck now shifts perfectly with the new valve body. Winner winner chicken dinner!!! 👍🤘
Same issue when cold only. 1-2, 5-6. Slams into gear hard and downshifts hard. Once warmed up. Goes away
F250 lariat 2019
I have a 19 that delays going into gear from Park whether it’s reverse or forward sometimes there’s a five second delay before it actually goes into gear
Hmmmmm
It does it cold or hot I noticed it when I first got the truck and then after the transmission fluid was changed it went away and now it seems to be coming back it’s not every time but it’s getting to be more frequent I’m going to check the fluid level tonight but I see no visible leaks
It has 34,000 miles on it and I believe the power train is 100,000 miles warranty I will wait until it gets more consistent if the fluid level is full otherwise when I bring it in I’m sure it will never do it for the mechanic lol
Hey, i have a problem with my transmission, low shift 4,3,2, strong kick, and it sometimes up temperature until 250 and back to 210 degrees, can you tell me can be body valve or temperatures valve? And if i don't have computer for programming transmission, can i go to car shop or i can't move car? Thanks for you help
U wld have 2 take to a shop
Great video. I’m actually having the same problem now with my 11- 250 super duty. Question. Would you say this is the overall best solution as opposed to just changing the #2 shift solenoid to a aftermarket performance Solenoid? My gears seem to hit on 1-2 and back from 3-2.
I have the same problem on my 2016. It's hard to get info. It seems like complete valve body replacement shouldn't be necessary seeing as everything inside of the valve body is replaceable
@@stevem4679 just went ahead and decide to order entire valve body
@joeluissalazar68 I did the same thing. It fixed my 2nd gear clunk for about 3 weeks and it caused a 5-6 flare under light throttle that was never there before. I think Ford's reman process might be questionable
I have a 2013 f250 runs fine and first second and third goes to 4th does nothing down shifts back to third no idea what the problem is change the filter new fluids flushed it coming up with code with solenoid shift solenoid problem and dirty fluid could a new filter fluid and new valve body with shift solenoids fix this
……it could
So I have a 2017 that I had tuned and extremely hard shifts from 3-4 from my tunes. Didn’t know it was a problem till it started ‘hoonk’ing when shifting 3-4 at only 60k miles. Ended up getting a high line pressure tune from my tuner and it seemed to fix the issue. I changed the fluid again at 90k and everything looked normal. Changed it again at 125k because mileage has dropped significantly and I can NOT find any other issues with the truck. At the 125k change fluid smelled burnt but everything else looked normal. I am wanting to clear the adaptives and start fresh again. Can I do that with for scan or do I have to take it to someone with ford ids???
Yes u can
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod hell ya! Thank you
Where are you located and are you interested in replacing the valve body in my 2013 f350?
Hey boss got a issue where from 3rd to 4th gear in my f250 slips anything comes up to mind it’s only got 67k miles it’s 2019
Sure dont pal
Arod I have a 2018 f250 and 2019 f350 drw both proven diesel tunes. Trans had a Kam reset and relearn. 2019 has 39k 1 trans flush.2018 has 89k and 3 trans flushed and filter replacement. I do it every 30k . Has a 2nd clutch lock up high line pressure tune. It it normal to have a hard shift 3rd to 4th gear ? No codes in system
No
Whats my next step? Take off the trans tunes do another Kam/tcm reset. Both trucks had the exhaust fall off ,egr fell off and ccv fell off rotted away in the rust belt of Florida . The tunes are low boost fueling ,hiss,and 200 hp switch on the fly. I need this truck to last its my daily driver
Id say valve body but i am unfamiliar with the rest
Thank you going to dealership for warranty on the 2019
Did you use the HC3Z-7A100-A in this 11-16 without issue? Thw stock part on that year is coming up as BC3Z AND HC3Z FOR 17+ trucks
Bc3z is for 11-16. Hc3z are 17-19 trucks
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod cool just wondering since you listed the 17-22 part number in the description and the video truck is an 11-16
There was a comment in the installation instructions that came with my valve body that says “remove the manual valve retaining tube before installing the control unit”. Does anybody know what that means? Because I don’t see it anywhere in any of the online videos that I’ve looked up.
Turned out it was just referring to the plastic cover that comes on the piston on the one side. Apparently most don’t come with it. Mine didn’t.
I have a 2019 f-250 SRW 4x4 CCSB. In my experience I have a wonky shift from 3rd-4th upshift I’ve had friends with 6.7’s with 6r140 trans must be a ford issue. My only question is with the wonky shifting will that harm the clutches of the transmission?
Yeah my 19 from day one has a harsh feel from 3 to 4 too. 28k and rollin, 2 more k and it’s time for the arod drain and refill!
My 2017 had a shudder while settling in to 4th, under load. Trans gave up finally, had a "hot build" done by a local shop. All shifting is silky smooth, even whilst towing heavy. Except 5-6, 6-5. They're a HUGE flair before settling into 6th. I'm talking, jumps to redline, then SLAAAAMS into gear like a frickin' neutral drop. FROM DAY ONE. "It needs to learn" I was told by the shop's warranty dept. "Give it a bit." 9,000 miles later, I'm dragging 26,000lbs through the Ozark mountains, does a flair, then KABLAM.... Nothing. Not even park. Transition year truck, has a BW4464 transfer case instead of an NP271F. 4464 does NOT have a neutral, meaning.... Ughhhh... Case was a lovely, Campbell's chunky soup of broken metal and fluid.
Did they replace the valve body during this HOTT build?
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod They say they did, it came with a new shift strategy and placard.
Hmmmm
And here I,am again I ,need a tyranny wizard for My 05 F350 DRW that has been making a clunking/ knock when it's needing to downshift from 5th to 4th at around 60 mph and 1800-1900 RPM'S hell at this point it may not even be the transmission since it does it after installing a BD 5R110 and Torque converter. And it when going up a grade. Driveline perhaps,but don't know why a grade uphill climb and not mashing the skinny pedal on the right to force the shift sooner and it doesn't happen. Using The BD Tapshifter and having the ability to hold 4th gear also takes care of it.
It's just driving me nuts. Soon I, shall take it to my local Ford Dealership for a drive and see what they come up with. And on my old tyranny I replaced 1 or 2 of the Valves and. Even threw a new Hughes Torque converter in prior to going with the Bd and it was still there. One day when I, do finally get a fix I,will put it the comments. Or if anyone else has had this problem let me know what was your fix.
Hey A-Rod, great video content... I have this issue but with my tuner, I was able to resolve this... Keep things coming these videos are very much appreciated... One question do you recommend disconnecting the batteries before working on these tranny electronic components...
What did you do to resolve it? I have an h and s mini Maxx on my 2008 and it shifted beautiful smooth before and then now it's no where near as close but definitely fine, would like it the same as before
Nawww...theres no power to it anywaysss
@@nativeoutdoors1780 Your Minimaxx should have a transmission program... I have a 2011 F450 and my Minimaxx has a transmission program that once installed per the instructions you need to do several 0-60 or 80mph runs then drive normal for several miles to allow the adaptive features to learn the tune and your driving habits... This has worked for me every time I've needed to go from tuned to stock then back to tuned again... Hopefully, this helps you!!!
@@TheRealSlowhand yeah I may have to try this, currently it runs pretty good since the last reset was months ago but I'll definitely try this method if I redo it again.
How where you able to resolve using your tuner?
Why not just replace the solenoids? Have an 18 F350 that’s hard downshifting from 4 to 3. Don’t have forscan so I guess I just need to take it somewhere.
The solenoids arent the problem......
Just did a fluid and filter change in my 6r140 couple weeks ago. Decided to go with Amsoil ATF synthetic which says it’s compatible with LV. Since I’ve had a couple random slips, one was pretty bad when I mashed on the accelerator pretty hard. No codes and shifts super smooth any other time.
Should I be concerned about mixing the Amsoil with the LV?
Hmmmmmm i havent heard of issues like that.
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Ok cool. I’m gonna keep sending it! 👍🏼
As long as you used the Amsoil Signature Series fuel efficient ATF or the Amsoil OE fuel efficient ATF you are fine, it's fully compatible with any LV fluid. Don't use their Signature or OE regular multi vehicle ATF it's for Dex II-III, Mercon & Mercon V and ATF4 & not compatible with LV.
@@oneninerniner3427 It was the synthetic fuel efficient. And it’s been shifting perfect, just those couple of flares. Been 25,000 miles since the service. 👍🏼
@@jasoncox2132 that's great👍 and I do realize this thread is old , but thought I would respond anyway for anybody else that may run across this and might be wondering.
Anyone know the torque specs on the valve body and pan?
Hey you said you will put all the o ring in the description I couldn't find plz let me know
Umm its right there
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod found it thanks keep up the channel 👍🏻 your doing excellent work.
Hi, thanks for posting this great video. I am having problems with my transmission again. It's shifting up and down gears hard but randomly; usually between 4th & 5th gear. Supposedly my transmission was fully rebuild and the mechanic told me that the valve body needed to be replaced after taking the transmission apart, which supposedly was done but I am not sure if he did. Anyways, my question is, is there a way to find out if the valve body was replaced? Like checking with an scanner to see if it has been programmed or not or checking with a dealership to see if they can provide me with the original valve body number. The truck is shifting through all the gears without any delays nor grinding which makes me think that if I replace the valve body could solve my problem. What are your thoughts on this. BTW my truck is a 2017 f350 dually with 163,000 miles and the transmission was rebuild 13 months ago (warranty just expired) when it had about 150,000 miles.
Hey man I’m having the exact same problems. Did you find out what it was? Did valve body fix the issue
@@osvaldovasquez2148 I did change the valve body and it did fix the problem I took my truck to another mechanic and he checked it and he told me that the valve body was never changed.The guy that rebuild my transmission before never change the valve body and he did charge me for that so now my truck is running good. Also if your truck is tuned you might want to take it to whoever tuned the truck to have the transmission tune or checked out because I know that having a tune on your truck can make an impact on your transmission. Good luck.
@@osvaldovasquez2148 BTW, if you decide to change the valve body keep in mind that the valve body has to be programed by an specialist, otherwise, the truck wouldn't run at all, a lot of mechanic shops can't programed the valve body therefore plan ahead of time.
Thank you! I’ll have it checked out. Mine is having a hard downshift from 5 to 4. If I accelerate it and make it downshift it won’t do it. It only does it if I let it downshift when I’m slowing down
@@osvaldovasquez2148 definitely have it checked out before it gets worse, I didn't fixed on time and ended up rebuilding the whole transmission the first time.
I'm having a harsh 4th gear down shift would this be my valvebody ? I have 17 250 6.7
🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️ I'd have 2 look at it
👍
Would it be possible to do all of this work and then drive the truck to a Ford dealership about 5 miles away? I don’t have whatever computer tool i need to reprogram the transmission.
Yea
You can do it with forscan too
Hi, 2014 F350, 6.7L, NEW transmission installed by Ford at 151,000 miles due to harsh shifting. Extended warranty covered it phew😅 Months later harsh shifts continued intermittently on the new transmission! Ford found damaged wire inside transmission and replaced the valve body I believe. Harsh shifts showed up again intermittently.🤦🏻♂️ Ford agrees harsh shifting is present and recommended NEW transmission AGAIN! I am confused… Ford transmission warranty will cover it this time. Just over one year left on this transmission warranty though. This is the third transmission and we now have 161k mikes on the truck. What would you do? I am losing confidence in Ford’s transmissions quickly. Nearly $10k for a new one if this happens again in just over one year. Please help.
If I’m having the same problem on my truck. Can I just replace that solenoid or do I have to replace the whole valve body?
I mean u can but it cld be the valves in the main control sticking...
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod any way to tell the difference
No. U tear down and inspect.....
My 2012 f250 has a hard shift the first drive of the day 2-3 and main cold out and only the first shift after that shifts perfectly
The fix just warm it up longer or bad solenoid/valve?
It will get worse. Mine started in the morning 1-2 or maybe it was 2-3 and only do it once in the day and sometimes it wouldn't do it in the morning. And then it slowly got worse. Like 6 months later it was 1-2, 3-2 and after a bit progressed to 5-6.
@Gamet Logging did you get your issue fixed by replacing the valve body?
@@alexhayes9544 no mine has been delayed in shipping. I'm hoping it's the issue. I've heard of people putting them in and it still acting up but after they drive it for a bit it clears up and smooths out. We will see. I'm hoping it comes by next week.
How much oil did u end up using if you dont mind me asking
10 like with the repair we did or 9 w/filter
Hey ARod. Looking into the future to get this done. Removing, installing no problem. Programing the valve body is another issue. What do you suggest? Thx
Enail us so we can remotely do it for ya
Thanks. Will do.
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARodoh that’s fantastic you can do this!! What’s that cost?
Gotta email uw
I have a new 2022 f250 tremor with the 6.7 and have had hard shifts into 3rd gear, took to dealer 2 times and they’re trying to tell me the transmission is learning my way of driving now I’m at 10k miles is the transmission still learning? Lol
Sounds like YOU need to goto another dealer. Unbelievable
All of the seals listed in the description, are all of them included except for BC3Z-7H249-C? Or do I need to buy all of the seals? Please confirm, thanks so much in advance.
Yeeep
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Yes to it comes with all seals except that one, or yes I gotta buy all of the seals? 😂😂😭
I appreciate the advice. Looking at doing the swap next week. 2017 F250 w/ 230k on it.
@ZOKAMedia it only comes with one seal. The part number id have 2 look up. I wld juat get all of them listed...not expensive
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Awesome thank you.
Hey bud. I know this is and older video, I'm hoping that you, or another person here in the chat can help me with an issue. I have a hard jerk from Reverse to drive only when transmission is hot. I have a shift flare from 5 to 6 at WOT, and a hard down shift from 6 to 4 and or 5 to 4 when going to pass other vehicles. PLEASE HELP!!!
Sounds like you need this video
@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod thanks brother, appreciate your videos
I just called my closest Ford dealership because I’ll be doing this job next week they are surprised that I would need all of these gaskets and seals. What are your thoughts on them do they need to be replaced? Do they come with the valve body? They said they would be special order because they just don’t typically sell them but yet they sell a lot of valve bodies
....do you wanna do it again.
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod are these the right seals for a 2012?
@jerrywelch870 yea
My 2022 has this same issue and is in the shop now with only 11,000 miles on it...they say the valve body seal is bad?
Seal???🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Thats kinda what i thought...

Can you program valve body with this scanner ?
I have a 2011 that shifts really hard from 1 to 2 up and down. Will I need a new valve body ??
Sounds like
It looks like something I could possibly do myself.
Will need to program
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod do you have a parts list I need for the job?
All of our videos have a description
