I bought this 07 focus 4 or 5 years ago and my daughter drove it. She lived 300 miles away. The engine revs when the transmission shifts into third gear.
But just the first shift into 3rd gear, after that the transmission shifts fine. I googled the problem and got reply's saying that the 3rd gear solenoid
is bad. If the solenoid was bad I would think the engine would rev at every 3rd gear transmission shift. I checked the fluid level and it looks like the
fluid is a little over full. Would being over full be the problem, or is it the solenoid, orrrrr is it a bigger problem? Thanks for any suggestions on
this.
