Ok so this makes the 4th time my truck ('01 Ex 7.3) was in the shop for trans issues. I had the trans completely rebuilt and upgraded with bigger TC and tow valve body, in January 2014. Since then I have had to take it back 3 times, 1st bad trans pump, 2nd bad valve body, third OD issues which still aren't fixed. It feels like it won't go in to OD (or it is but the TC isn't locking, not sure which) until it's at operating temp, which it has never done that before until recent. Well the guy at the trans shop said that is how it's supposed to be. Also I have bad glow plugs (which are being replaced this week) and he said that the trans will have issues because of the bad glow plugs. Is there any truth to these statements. I don't think there is but I just want to make sure before I go chew his a$$ out for chitty work. It's still under warranty until the new year but I start the police academy in 3 weeks and need my truck back.
