I recently noticed that my Ford S-Max is having trouble shifting gears smoothly, especially when accelerating. What could be the potential causes for this issue?
ReplyOne possible cause for the gear shifting problem could be a low level of transmission fluid. Check the transmission fluid level and top it off if needed.
Another reason could be a faulty transmission solenoid. I suggest getting the solenoid checked and replaced if necessary.
In some cases, a clogged or dirty air filter can also cause gear shifting problems. Make sure to clean or replace the air filter regularly.
