P.S. ..... OR, I wonder if my repair shop didn't put the wrong type of tranny fluid in it when I had them completely flush it at 25K miles? Ford is adamant about using ONLY SP FLUID in their TorqShift transmissions, but some mechanics may not know, or pay any attention to, this .... and just put good old Mercon fluid into the later year Ford transmissions.
I would be suspicious of this as well. The 5R110 rarely fails from "burned up" clutches. Its failures tend to be more catastrophic. Wrong fluid will certainly cause that kind of damage however.
The good news is wrecking yard units are about $400 for a low-mile 5R110 (in F-series trim at least), because there is so little demand for them.
