Transmission problems?

I had transmission fluid and filter changed at a reputable place when my explorer had about 65,000 miles. It was already experiencing this delayed engagement problem so I thought that changing fluid would help

Hello, I have a 2005 Ford Explorer 4x4 V6 Flex Fuel vehicle. When I place the vehicle into drive (no matter what kind of flat or level area I'm parked on) the vehicle does not immediately go into gear, and the rear makes a "clunking" noise when it does finally go into gear.

Recently I had both of the front wheel bearing assemblies replaced. Since then, the entire vehicle shakes no matter what speed I am traveling at, and gets worse around the 70-75 MPH range. There is also a loud howelling sound coming from what sounds like the rear of the vehicle, but I'm not positive.

When driving in a parking lot (5-15MPH) there is a clicking sound coming from somewhere on the vehicle.

Any thoughts as to what may be causing these problems?

Thank You

2002 Ford Explorer will not go into gear. Brake lights and reverse lights work, gear arm moves freely between gears. What is the problem?

When I have been driving for a short while and the suv gets hot the tranny will not engage into second gear. The rpms go up but I got noware. This only happens when it is at operating temps, when it is cold everything is great. The problem started after driving on the hiway in a heavy rain storm. I am not getting any codes and this only happens at take of speed. I replaced the air filter hopping it was the mass air flow sensor and the I cleand the corosion from the plug at the tranny range sensor but these things have not fixed the problem. The tranny oil and filter were done about 3000 km ago. I know ford are bad for trannys, I just hope it is a sensor or some thing simple that I am able to fix. Thank you for you answers. The engine is SOHC if that means anything.

My flex plate was shattered. So I dropped the transmission and put it back together. After hooking up the wiring to the transmission, it does not move the vehicle. I added oil to the transmission. I put it in gear and the vehicle does not move. What should I look for? Thank you!James

Thanks for the advice! I'll try the clear plastic hose to see if my pump is working. My flex plate was broken and I replaced it. I tightened the torque converter bolts to the flex plate.

My transmission is fine but my explorer still will not engage into a gear what could be wrong?

Will not engage in reverse, no indications anything was wrong. All forward gears function properly.

No check engine light on, parked uptown, backed up to go to next store and had to push it backwards to get home. All forward gears work fine as well as 4x4 hi and lo

I put my truck in reverse it moves. I put it in drive and it just shuts off, but then I gave it a little throttle in the neutral gear them put in drive #1 on the dash broad and it drives, but it shuts off in the regular drive? What could it be?

Thank you and have a Happy New Year.
