Angry 4R70W shifts late into 3rd
I have a 2000 f150 with 5.4l auto. 4x4. when driving from a stop it
shifts late from 2nd into 3rd. all other gear shifts are smooth
I changed the fluid and filter with no effect. when I drop the pan, there
was no metal in it and the fluid was still clean.
could this be a solenoid problem??

help !!!!

What do you mean by late? About what speed or rpm is it shifting at? And do you have overdrive and is that shifting in ok?

sometimes it shifts at 30 mph and 3000 rpms
other times a little less.

seems if i let up on the gas it shifts sooner

overdrive and the tc lock up are fine

You are probably dealing with a direct clutch issue. Any pressure loss, or worn/glazed clutches can cause it. Have someone hook up a scanner and make sure TPS and MAF signals are OK. If data looks OK, may be rebuild time.
