OK, I give up.
 
While adding washer fluid the other day, I decided to figure out where the ATF dipstick is. Darned if I can find one. :confused:

Don't have one ! the trans is a sealed unit.

A lot of vehicles are going this route, couldn't find one on our 02 Mountaineer either....

Call me "old school" (oh yeah... I AM) but I always have my engines and transmissions power flushed every 50,000 miles. Sounds like another technology adjustment for me to make. :roll:

I know, just when you get used to not adjusting point dwell, they change something else.

They say you don't have to tune an engine until 100K but I'll guarantee you it will need to be done sooner, at least in Florida. The plug wires fail long before 100K and if you have to replace them, you might as well put in new plugs.

They also thought a sealed front end was a great idea. They had to cut through the seals and grease the linkage on my Windstar at about 50K when it started creaking on a hard turn.

Got any more great ideas?

:thumb: The plug wires on trucks/suvs are welded to the plugs at 100K so if they haven't failed yet, they will when you remove them. But not to worry I have a 100K warranty on that tranny.

If they sealed up the tranny down the street from me , he wouldn't be in jail all the time!

That is just a little more than I wanted to know.
