Hi Peoples
For the last month or two the Ranger has had a slight but noticeable vibration at idle and up to around 1,600rpm. Checked engine mounts and looked for anything that may have come loose under the bonnet and found nothing.
Driving home tonight it seemed to be down on power. Doing some research tonight I have read that there are torque converter issues with the 6R80 transmissions.
Has anyone here had similar issues??
