Ford E4OD Transmission Shift Speed Chart - Light & Wide-Open Throttle MPH

Specification table of E4OD transmission shift speeds in mph by throttle opening and gear.

AI caption · Photo 222 of 224

This document is a reference table titled "E4OD Applications Shift Speeds — Approximate* MPH," showing the approximate vehicle speeds (in MPH) at which the Ford E4OD automatic transmission shifts between gears. The table is divided into two throttle conditions: Light Throttle and Wide-Open Throttle. For each condition, it lists the selector range ((D) or D), the gear shift (1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-3, 3-2, 2-1), and the corresponding approximate vehicle speed range. Under light throttle, upshifts occur at low speeds (e.g., 1-2 at 8-15 mph, 2-3 at 16-24 mph, 3-4 at 32-49 mph), while at wide-open throttle shifts occur much later (e.g., 1-2 at 20-43 mph, 2-3 at 37-74 mph, 3-4 at 54-110 mph). Downshift speeds (4-3, 3-2, 2-1) are also listed for both conditions. A partially cut-off footnote states that nominal shift speed at sea level is shown and that actual speeds depend on tire brand, size and axle ratio, referencing Special Specification Bulletin FPS-12180-9 (remainder cut off). This chart is useful for diagnosing whether an E4OD transmission is shifting at the correct road speeds.

Frequently asked questions

At what speed does the E4OD shift from 1st to 2nd under light throttle?
Approximately 8-15 mph in (D) or D range.
At what speed does the E4OD shift into 4th (overdrive) at wide-open throttle?
The 3-4 shift at wide-open throttle occurs at approximately 54-110 mph in (D).
What speed does the E4OD downshift from 4th to 3rd under light throttle?
Approximately 28-45 mph in (D).
What factors affect the actual shift speeds listed in this chart?
The footnote states actual speeds depend on tire brand, size and axle ratio; nominal shift speed at sea level is shown.
What is the wide-open throttle 2-3 shift speed range for the E4OD?
Approximately 37-74 mph in (D) or D range.
