  Q: How to service and repair the Transmission Pan and Automatic Transmission Filter on Lincoln Aviator?

  A: The servicability of automatic transmission fluid filters requires that you raise and stabilize the vehicle followed by setting up a drain pan beneath the transmission fluid pan. Drain the fluid by removing the plug located in the drain position. You can use the transmission fluid pan gasket again after cleaning it for inspection purposes and as long as it stays undamaged. The service requires removal of both the 16 transmission fluid pan screws followed by the fluid pan extraction and gasket removal. But first discard the transmission fluid filter and proceed with cleaning the transmission fluid pan while examining the magnet. The new filter installation requires applying transmission fluid only to seals for protection before you check their proper placement. Tighten the filter to 10 Nm (89 inch lbs.) value. The fluid pan magnet should be installed into the transmission fluid pan followed by a placement of the reusable gasket on the pan. Place the transmission fluid pan with gasket afterward while holding the screws loosely then cross-tighten them at 10 Nm (89 inch lbs.). To complete the procedure install the fluid drain plug while tightening it to 26 Nm (19 ft. lbs.) after partially filling the transmission as required.
