My 4.0L S type 2002 with 5R55N auto box experiences a delay when selecting Drive from the Park position. My instinct is to replace the Forward engagement spring, although other sources suggest I should re-program the PCM to the latest calibration level, others suggest a cable problem. Any advice most welcome as to do this by trial and error looks costly and time consuming.

Thanks Guys, I have to admit I was unsure where to post this issue. I have re-posted it in the Tech issue section, sorry if that's against the rules i.e. posting the same issue twice! As far as I know it's a 5 speed box. Again any help most appreciated

 

Although we usually 'have a word' about post whoring as it's known, in this instance I'd have copied it to S-Type tech section for you anyway as that's where the experts are to be found on this transmission issue.

Good luck.

Graham
