A Ford tech explaining the shudder. It gets written up as a clutch when half the time the TCM on top of the box has failed on its own.

Court orders Ford to pay $10 million penalty for unconscionable conduct
The Federal Court has declared, by consent, that Ford Motor Company of Australia Limited (Ford) engaged in unconscionable conduct in the way it dealt with complaints about PowerShift transmission (PST) cars, and ordered Ford to pay $10 million in penalties.
Ford got fined 10 million over the Powershift. Not for building the gearbox, for what it told the people who complained.
37 percent of the Australian Powershift cars had a clutch replaced. That is not a bad batch, that is the design.
