Well, my old car (1997 Mercury Grand Marquis) had the 4.6 drivetrain too. Ford has come a long way with the trannys on these things. The Marquis was knocking when it would reach the overdrive gear, but other than that it shifted fine. My brother has a 1996 Explorer 5.0 that was doing the same thing, but has been since it hit 140,000. Now it's at 192,000 miles and it still does it, but it hasnt gotten any worse. lol That's right about the time the Mercury started knocking too at about 140.000.
But no problems with the crown vic though. It shifts a lot smoother, especially when hitting overdrive. It clutches out and frees up the motor to get the RPM's up a little before it actually takes the gear. We'll have to see if I have the same problems once I hit 140,000. lol But this driverain, is updated and made to last.
@ITSKonstantinoupolis i just got an 04 police interceptor and some guy said my transmission will go to shit? anyone here or do you own one? hows it doing?
I had to rebuild my '98 at 158,000 but it was worth it. It shifts good and hard still, almost like it has a shift kit, but the drive lines are so long that if you run them hard and fast apparently it will thrash your transmission - or so I was told.
Go figure dude. lol You do. I'm only 17 myself. I drive this car to school every day! I got mine for $4,800 and it only had 73,000 miles on it. It's hands down the best car for the money. You should get you one. I love mine. Not to mention they look sick with driving lights in the air dam. Just threw those on last night.
I know dude, a RWD V8, for so cheap! I want a Mustang GT, but they cost more, and more to insure for damn sure! I love Muscle Cars, and this is close as I can get at this stage in my life. The Mustang will come, one day lol. I dont know what I will get, either this or a V6 Hyundai, but I do want something American, you know.
Yea.....I totally would want a Camaro Z28 or a Mustang GT so bad.....I hate insurance damnit, they dont know how I drive.....I wish they made their charger before they did......they would be affordable by now, and they are four door!
lol. No biggie dude. I'm in the same boat as you. I'm a big Fox body mustang guy. I want a 5 Liter 5-Speed one day. Maybe build one as my first project car. Plus, I love the newer GTO's with the 6 Liter LS Motor. My God. lol BUt yeah man keep me updated as to whether you get one or not, and I'll be shure to check your vids out.
and i thought i was the only 17yr old with an interceptor. jk but damn yours is sooo much more clean than mine. it a 99 with some rust, got it for around 3k with 109,000 miles
Nice car man. Wish I had the 04+ so I could have the extra ponies. BTW, I was running no mufflers for a while and since I'm cheap got a couple of flowtech glasspacks for like 50 bucks shipped. Im gonna post a video real soon
Love my 03 CV. Only 21000 on it!

@ITSKonstantinoupolis Negative, all i drive is Ford, but i will admit it's the owners not Ford. Ford owners need to know they have to do there part.
Now Dodge is another story.
