Can a car shift out of 2nd gear when its cold?
When it’s cold (<30F), the transmission will not shift out of 2nd or 3rd gear, can’t tell which. It reaches about 40mph before the RPMs approach 3000, and I dare not push it harder. Let the car warm up or drive it for 5 minutes and everything is fine.
Why is my AOD transmission not shifting out of first gear?
If the governor is sticking it will cause a delayed, or no upshift, depending on how bad the condition causing the sticking is. If the 1-2 shift valve is stuck, and will not stroke, the transmission will not shift out of first gear. To top I just put an 85 AOD transmission in a 1995 F150.
Why is my overdrive gear no longer engaged?
Band Failure – Most of the time the overdrive gear is going to fail to engage due to the wearing of the band for the Overdrive. The servo will no longer be able to engage it because of this wear. This is the physical problems that stops overdrive most of the time if no other issue is detected.
What happens if the servo on the transmission is stuck?
If the servo that applies the band is stuck or has badly damaged seals the symptoms will be the same. If the 3-4 shift valve is stuck, then the transmission will not shift into overdrive, but will not neutral out. The transmission will continue to pull in 3rd gear with no slippage. To top

Why does my car not shift gears in cold weather?
The car doesn’t shift gears quickly, because they are stuck due to the freezing temperature on the outside. After the car is warmed up correctly in a few miles, the gears start to function normally. The battery of the car is the main component, if it happens to dry out, freeze, or turn weak in cold weather, obviously your car is in a big fix.
What causes transmission to slip in cold weather?
Speaking of common transmission problems in a vehicle, like broken gears and bands, fluids of a poor quality, and so on, automatic transmission problems in cold weather is very common. This condition is also called transmission slipping.
If the governor is sticking it will cause a delayed, or no upshift, depending on how bad the condition causing the sticking is. If the 1-2 shift valve is stuck, and will not stroke, the transmission will not shift out of first gear. To top I just put an 85 AOD transmission in a 1995 F150.
