my 2003 lincoln aviator is taking long to shift when first takes off. Could that be needing a coil?

If a coil was bad you would have a miss and the CEL would be on.

Just go to a trany shop for diagnosis. There are shift solenoids that they may be able to do something with.

Well the transmission place said it was misfiring and it needed a new transmission. Not sure if they are just trying to make money with new transmission or what. I looked up the recalls and it says there is a recall for the the ignition coil. Will this fix the problem? Please help!! :)

It will make your engine run better and take care of the CEL light. It may help with the shifting, depends on what kind of shape the trany is in.
