Re: 2009 focus High RPM and Transmission not shifting proper
Are the rpms high in every gear? Does the transmission shutter or clunk when it does shift?

Re: 2009 focus High RPM and Transmission not shifting proper
yes high in every gear trumps when shifting Just a thought could it be a fuse

Re: 2009 focus High RPM and Transmission not shifting proper
It wouldn't be a fuse. Best case scenario is that it's the speed sensor, or the computer needs re-programmed.. but more than likely the trans is bad if you have trouble consistently in every gear, and it physically makes a sound when it shifts.
With limited information it's hard to say exactly what it could be. Fords around that year were infamous for consistent trans issues. A lot had a defect in the case, and had issues with the driver's side short shaft. |

Have the check engine light code checked.. that will usually point you in the right direction.

Re: 2009 focus High RPM and Transmission not shifting proper
How many miles are on the car? Did you check the transmission fluid for quantity and take a whiff? Does it smell burnt? Based on the limited info available, I'm leaning towards low fluid or transmission failure.

Re: 2009 focus High RPM and Transmission not shifting proper
Its my daughters car I was going on info she was giving me I drove it today There is 103K miles the transmission is shifting ok But it is not going into or out of the overdrive I got it to function a couple of times then it would do it no more. I also did a check engine test and the co sensor is bad I have not installed a new one yet I guess what we are looking for is why it is not shifting into and out of overdrive
