• Q: How to Service and Repair the Transmission Pan, Gasket, and Filter of an Automatic Transmission on 2007 Ford Crown Victoria?

  A: Service procedures for the fluid pan gasket and filter require users to avoid using any additional transmission fluid treatments since they might result in internal component failure. The automatic transmission fluid needs periodic replacements for normal maintenance and professional technicians require transmission removal for performing clutch and band and bearing major repairs. Caretakers must depower fire suppression systems on vehicles before starting any work. To begin fluid draining the transmission lies at neutral position on a hoist and requires intentional loosening of each transmission pan bolt until all fluid empties out prior to bolt removal. Use these steps to first remove both the gasket and pan of the transmission fluid followed by gentle extraction to remove the transmission fluid filter and its attached seal. Examine all components of the transmission fluid pan along with the gasket and magnet before cleaning them. When installing a new filter users should use a screwdriver to remove any residual seal within the main control bore while avoiding bore damage. Serve the filter with new components in cases of contamination but reuse it when no severe contamination exists. Replace the fluid filter and seal when necessary while placing the pan magnet inside the fluid pan. The gasket can continue usage after cleaning and checking for damage. Reinstall the transmission fluid pan together with its gasket while tightening bolts to 14 Nm (10 lb-ft). Equipment with fire suppression systems requires a power supply reconnection. Place 4.7L (5 qt) of cleaned automatic transmission fluid into the unit until it reaches the proper level.
