The Ford 5R110W TorqShift is a heavy-duty electronically controlled automatic transmission best known for its use in Ford Super Duty trucks, particularly applications equipped with the 6.0L and 6.4L Power Stroke diesel engines. Designed for high-torque truck applications, the 5R110W uses multiple clutch assemblies, adaptive electronic controls, a lockup torque converter and sophisticated hydraulic management to handle towing, hauling and commercial-duty demands. Its control strategy is unusual because available ratios and shift scheduling can vary with operating conditions and transmission temperature. If your 5R110W-equipped Ford truck is slipping, shifting harshly or having trouble under load in Bellevue, NE, Certified Transmission can diagnose the transmission and provide a rebuilt 5R110W when replacement is necessary.

Common 5R110W TorqShift Transmission Problems

Heavy towing, increased diesel-engine output and high operating temperatures can expose weaknesses in an aging 5R110W. Valve-body and pressure-control problems can cause delayed engagement, harsh shifts, shift flare or clutch slip. Torque-converter clutch problems may produce shudder, excessive slip or poor lockup under load. Solenoid-body and electronic-control issues can affect shift timing and commanded hydraulic pressure, while worn clutch assemblies or internal seals can lead to increasingly severe slipping. Modified Power Stroke engines can place substantially greater torque through the transmission than a stock application, making actual vehicle use and engine output important considerations when diagnosing a failure or selecting a rebuilt replacement.
