Forward clutch plate cracked ???
Forward clutch plate cracked ???
2001 f150 4x4 automatic 4.6 v8 306700 miles no check engine lights and did have some hesitation upon taking odf from a stop but now is running beautiful again. But still Took my truck into a Trans shop and they tell me I have a cracked forward clutch plate , isn't this internal transmission part?? And if it is how would the mechanic know it's cracked without dropping the Trans and checking it. I had codes 1832, 1824, and 1783 which have all gone away which is strange cause I've only done a few things to take care of driveability issues nothing to the Trans. Now I'm stumped and need to know if this guys just trying to take advantage cause I'm a woman .

Is it still slipping or is it working properly? If it's working properly I wouldn't worry about it until something happens. At 306k it's only a matter of time before you will need a transmission rebuild anyway. You did change the fluid, right?

It's not slipping anymore for some reason. And I planned on changing the fluid and filter this weekend. I've been playing catch up with this baby now for over a year. I've replaced quite a few parts that were neglected by previous owner. I believe in maintenence not waiting till its broken to deal with things. Thanks for your response and questions.
