might be your transmission. you mite have low transmission fluid.
you might have to take to the ford dealer or READ THE Manual
if the bolt up you can you might need to add some computer stuff depending on what year the car or truck is.
yes, but im sure it will be rather costly. might as well trade in your manual aveo for an auto aveo.
It dependsprimarily on the engine in the Explorer, and the engine in the Cougar, and the years of each. If the Cougar is 1989-1997, equipped with a V8 (which would mean the tranny is an AOD - specifically, 4R70W) and the Explorer is a 5.0 between 1994 and 2001, it'll have the same transmission. Of course, if you're taking a transmission out of the Cougar and in to the Explorer, the gearset won't be heavy enough, and you'll just end-up ruining it. In the other direction, you might notice a loss of performance because of the gearing. But, it's pheasible if your options are limited.
If you can't find one at your local library you might have to get one from the dealer.
you can but depending on the transmission model you might have to buy a different bell housing for it
if you are missing any gears in your manual transmission it is shot. You might as well replace the clutch while you have the tranny pulled so you dont have to do it later.
In the United States, I'm honestly not sure if you can. You might have to go to a specialty rental company, such as a sports car or exotic rental, to get a manual transmission. Manual rental cars seem fairly common in Europe, but I have never encountered one in the US (I work in car rental).
A500 Transmission normally comes in the 82-00 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo and other models with a straight 6 or V6 engines. There is a PDF manual out on the web you can obtain free for rebuilding it. I did my own with a friend and then had my work checked by a shop for precaution as to my work. Not sure what the wen site is where I obtained it, however you can search for ATSG Transmission Manual for 42 RH (A500)-46RH (A518)-47RH (A618) This is what the title of the manual, it should be easy to find. This manual is very good. Pages you may use frequently within the manual you might want to print more than one on those pages to prevent grease/fluids to damaged with reading. To be used outside the manual binder. Just keep the manual handy in incase that were the case. Keep the pdf file in a safe place. The A 518 is usually for a V8
Yes the transmission manual or automatic are the same. The only thing is the computer might(most likely) need reprogramming.
When a vehicle does not go into gear when it is shifted from park to drive, it is usually due to transmission issues. If it has a manual transmission the gears may be stripped, if it is automatic then the transmission may have overheated.
