Hi guys, we need a little bit of help as we have bought our first Falcon a AU1 '99 and its a great car, comfy and nice when you plant the right foot
 , only thing is the autobox does not want to select a gear first thing in the morning. The colder the weather the worse it is, but will go into reverse then try to put it into drive, and its either really slow or it wont engage and you have to try several times. When the car has warmed up its fine all day, its strange. Looking through this forum, it's possibly low on ATF fluid? When we bought it the seller mentioned it had a slow solenoid in the gear box, but he had replaced the ATF fluid to try to fix this prob (hanging onto first gear) but further reading sounds like he has not fully filled the box with fluid. I am going to ring a Ford dealership and sound them out to what the problem is, but would really appreciate your expertise and knowledge to give me a heads up. Love driving the car, and be great to fix the prob. Thanks again guys, James |
