Guest aftermidnight Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 1995 ford Taurus GL 3.0 V-6, auto, all power options, cd player, runs perfect, transmission shifts funky (firm) into 2nd gear, 197,000 miles, newer brakes. I just bought my girlfriend a 2004 Grand Am so her Taurus is just taking up room. Looking for $700 OBO. Let me know. Thanks, Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokin5s Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 just a heads up, I have heard that these years do have bad tranny's in them... that could be why it's "funky" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aftermidnight Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 I've heard that too. When it's cold, it shifts perfect, but when it heats up, it "drops" into 2nd gear. The rest of the gears shift very smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboRust Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 95's actualy had a revised tranny that was better than any previous year. I would check fluid color and possibly do a drain and fill or flush with mercon 5 and some friction modifier from ford. if it has the wrong fluid in it that could cause those symtpoms.

smokin5s Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 be careful though... if the tranny is going.. putting fresh fluids in it can make it worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
