[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 971341, member: 52972"] I agree with Eddie. The vavle body is the primary cause of the majority of all the problems with the Sport Trac Transmissions. It sounds like the tranmission shop that did your rebuild are not familiar with the transmission and just assumed a cheap rebuild (cheap for them, no you) would fix the problem. The valve body can be replaced without removing the transmission, and is not more labor intensive than dropping the pan and changing the filter. Since they did not properly diagnose the problem, they should install a new valve body and only charge you for the cost of the parts....The should eat the labor cost because it was their misdiagnosis and failure to replace the valve body when they were rebuilding the transmission. Most places charge about $400-$450 to replace the valve body...that includes parts and labor, so the parts alone should be about $100 cheaper. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
