tr3650 shifting issues

[Quick281]

been having shifting problems since the day i bought the car... ford blows me off when i try to get them to look at it... now ive lost 2nd gear.. again.. ford rebuilt the trans 23k miles ago. shifting over 4500 rpms to 2nd gear will grind every time. every other shift is fine - even when i dont lift. anyone else having this problem ??

tr 3650 sucks, mine went with 2nd and 3rd.

every other shift has been fine. i can get 2nd to work if i mess with it enuff. maybe something is bent ?

yeah mine would go in if i let the rpms drop and driving under 35mph but it would still grind a little.

I just bought a new tranny because the cost to have someone rebuild it was too much.

did you get a new 3650 ?

K-member and torque limiters? The engine might be twisting the tranny out of alignment with your movements?

:idk: i stood under the car today with it running and the trans has some not so good sounds coming from inside
