Is it slipping?
Hi all. I have a 2004 f150 with the 5.4 4 speed auto and im having a few issues with it. Number one being that when im driving around sometimes at 2-3000 rpms the transmission sometimes acts like it wants to down shift and the engine revs a little bit with no acceleration but then a new gear never engages and it just reengages the same gear. Is this normal? it only lasts for about a second (about the time it would take to shift from 3rd to 2nd) so i dont think it is slipping. My other problem is that sometimes when i put my foot on the gas it feels like the engine and/or transmission has to "catch up" to where the rest of the drivetrain is and so it revs and then feels like it catches.
Thanks!
Thanks!

sounds almost like its doing a neutral drop? is the check engine light on? try resetting the computer first and give it a day or 2. GLC is right about the plugs. you HAVE to be watchful of what you are doing. i've always done mine, but i always plan on breaking 1 (and if i don't, it's a much happier day!)
