  Q: How to Service and Repair the Automatic Transmission Filter on Mercury Grand Marquis?

  A: Service and repair operations for automatic transmission fluid filters start with placing the vehicle in NEUTRAL position on a hoist. The transmission fluid requires complete draining through bolt loosening of the fluid pan followed by complete drainage before removing the hardware. Detach the transmission fluid filter with its accompanying seal by pulling down evenly after removing both the transmission fluid pan and its gasket. The technician should study the pan along with gasket and magnet for cleanliness. To prevent damage to the main control bore owners should gently remove every residual seal with a screwdriver. A new filter and seal should replace existing components during contamination-related failure but otherwise the used filter can remain if no major contamination issues exist. The installation process requires new fluid filter and seal components while the pan magnet needs placement inside the transmission fluid pan. A transmission fluid pan gasket can function again if it remains undamaged after cleaning and visual inspection. Place the transmission fluid pan with its gasket layer properly before adding pan bolts. End the transmission filling procedure by adding 4.7 liters (5 quarts) of clean automatic transmission fluid until reaching the proper fluid mark.
