BD Diesel Performance - 1030385 PRESSURE ENHANCER

Wasn’t too sure with all the yes and no reviews. For my application and transmission issues, this seemed to do the trick. No more sloppy upshifts and harsh downshifts. I have 127k on the clock and was fearful a trans rebuild was in near future. Now I may have bought more time with an inexpensive repair vs rebuild.

I have a 2015 F250 Super Duty. In the mornings my transmission would not engage until it warmed up to 90 plus degrees. It also shifted hard between 5th and 6th sometimes jumping back and forth between gears. After installing the Pressure enhancer solenoid all these problems went away.

TO BE FAIR, I haven't actually hooked my scan tool up to my truck and driving around recording line pressure data. More over, I don't think I had done that before, I looked at it to make sure my pump wasn't the failure in my trans. Spoiler alert, it wasn't. But I never really recorded the data, pre or post install, which included other much needed repairs to the internals. I bought it cause I bought the sales pitch, I know there are variable solenoids, but really it's an on/off switch. I searched and searched to find information that would tell me HOW an on/off switch is supposed to up my line pressure, couldn't find any. My trans is working just fine now, and I'm not completely sure if that's from my work or the solenoid. Would I buy it again, probably not.

I bought this and kept it until it was time for the transmission filter/fluid change. Install time took about 40 mins from start to finish.As I said in the title it doesn’t make a massive difference but you can definitely feel it. The shift between 2 & 3 under heavy acceleration is definitely smoother and not as hard. The other thing I notice is the jerk I would feel when the truck downshifts from 2nd to 1st coasting to a red light is gone now.

Worked great trans shifts perfectly again and was easy to install

So far it works well. I installed when I had to do a trans filter flush. Shifts noticeably better. Truck is mostly stock. The install is easy, if you’re already doing a trans filter change / flush. Otherwise I’d hold off until then.

My transmission is actually worse now than it was. Save your money. This is just another bogus way too make money.

Straight forward and painless install, though it didn’t provide the shift firmness that I expected based on other customer claims. Not 100% sold that it was worth the time or money to do.
