2001 7.3 transmission problems
The other day, the transmission has been acting up on my 2001 7.3. Everytime I take off though 1st gear it would rev up to 3000 Rpms until it would shift to 2nd and from all the other gears it would shift irregularly. I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on what the problem is. In the morning I'm gonna change the tranny fluid and I hope it makes a difference but I know on diesels it's not that simple I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks

If you can, take your truck for a drive again and count the gear shifts carefully, there should be 4 (1-3 and then OD). Also, watch the gear selector lever. Is the "Overdrive" indicator blinking? |
It's drivable and it shift but the shift points are very hard and they shift in high Rpms and the over drive indicator was blinking when the problem started but I hit the truck off and started it back up and it stopped. But the transmission just feels weak now and doesn't have very much power behind It

The thing is that I took it in the other day and he scanned it but there weren't any codes for the transmission but when he drove it he said the clutch was slipping pretty bad. So there isn't anything besides getting it rebuilt
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- And I also only have 130,000 miles on the truck which is the really said part about it. I don't understand why it went bad |

Yea. I replaced the fluid and filter right after this all happened and the only thing that was bad was te oil was very dark so it must have over heated
