• Q: How to Service and Repair the Automatic Transmission Filter on 2003 Ford Explorer?

  A: Beginning the automatic transmission fluid filter repair process starts with sealing the fluid filter using lubricated automatic transmission fluid to protect from damages followed by correct placement. The transmission fluid pan gasket should be reused after cleaning it for damage assessment. If no damage is present you should reuse it. The installation of a new transmission fluid filter must be completed at this time. Follow the specified removal order when working with the hoisted and PARK-positioned vehicle. Follow the reverse order of removal steps to install the transmission while filling it partially with new fluid. Apply lubricants on the seals of the transmission fluid filter before confirming proper sealing. After installing the transmission fluid pan together with its gasket place the screws just loosely in position. Follow up the installation by securing the screws in a crisscross manner until everything is set.
