INCREDIBLE!!!
My truck went into the shop to get a small leak fixed under warranty that had NOTHING to do with it's performance. The Mechanic has 40 years doing transmissions and a great reputation.
He removed the back half of the trans replaced the gasket and it didn't feel right going back together. New gasket and it felt good and did a test ride all was good to go. I towed it 45 miles and it self destructed because he did not know and follow the proper procedure to replace the gasket. He admitted it was his fault but said he simply has touched two AISIN's in his career and they were simply RnR. Proper procedure is to remove trans, stand on it's end then do the gasket replacement letting gravity be your friend.
So Fish next time give all the FACTS you already know when trying to make something look bad so people can know the truth.
Ron, is that the same mechanic that is going to be replacing Bosch CP4-2 injection pumps on RAM/Cummins truck with the much more reliable CP3 pumps under a recall for all RAM trucks that have the CP4-2? I do not recall hearing about any Ford mechanics going to be doing that?
Cummins implementation of the CP4.2 was terrible and like firepunk reported the CP4.2 was overdriven and the failures was crazy. Cummins didn't have the CP4.2 failures in their 5.0 diesel compared to the 6.7.
