Transmission Fluid Refill NOTICE: This procedure contains the air purge steps required to purge air from the cooling system. This procedure is NOT intended for use with the Transmission Fluid Level Check. NOTICE: The vehicle should not be driven if the fluid level is low as internal failure could result. NOTICE: The fluid fill plug is located near the exhaust system. The exhaust will be extremely hot during this procedure. NOTICE: The use of any other transmission fluid than specified, can result in the transmission failing to operate in a normal manner or transmission failure. NOTE: If the transmission starts to slip, shifts slowly or shows signs of fluid leaking, the fluid level should be checked. NOTE: Here is an overview of the Transmission Fluid Drain and Refill procedure. Adding 3.3L (3.5 qt) of clean automatic transmission fluid to the transmission is an initial fill enabling you to start the engine. The cold level range shown in the procedure allows the vehicle to be driven. The vehicle should be driven to allow the transmission fluid temperature to reach 85ºC-88ºC (185ºF-190ºF) in order to purge the air from the transmission cooling system. Fill the transmission fluid to the fill range on the fluid level indicator at the normal operating range 80ºC-85ºC (175ºF-185ºF). 1. NOTE: The transmission will need 3.3L (3.5 qt) of clean automatic transmission fluid added to the transmission as an initial fill if: the transmission has been overhauled. a new mechatronic assembly has been installed. the transmission fluid pan or fluid filter have been removed. Using the special tool, add 3.3L (3.5 qt) of clean automatic transmission fluid to the transmission through the fluid fill hole. For additional information, refer to Adding Additional Transmission Fluid in this procedure. 2. Check the transmission fluid level cold. 1. The vehicle is safe to drive if the transmission fluid is in the cold level range 32°C-43°C (90° F-11 0° F). Using the scan tool and the engine running, place the transmission selector lever in each gear position and hold approximately 5 seconds. Place the transmission selector lever in PARK, with the engine at idle (600-750 rpm).

NOTICE: The use of any fluid other than what is recommended for this transmission will cause transmission damage. Draining 1. With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist. For additional information, refer to Section 100-02. 2. Remove the transmission fluid drain plug and allow the transmission fluid to drain. Refill 3. Install the transmission fluid drain plug. Tighten to 47 Nm (35 lb-ft). 4. Remove the transmission fluid fill plug. 5. Fill the transaxle with approximately 3.7L (4 qt) of clean transmission fluid. 6. Install the transmission fluid fill plug. Tighten to 39 Nm (29 lb-ft). 7. With the transaxle in (P) PARK, the vehicle should be on a level surface, the engine at idle (680-780 rpm), foot pressed on the brake, move the selector lever through each gear and allow engagement of each gear. Place the selector lever back in the PARK position. 8. Wipe the transmission fluid level indicator cap and remove the fluid level indicator. 9. Wipe the transmission fluid level indicator with a clean cloth. 10. NOTE: In order to get an accurate transmission fluid level reading, the vehicle should be on a level surface, the engine at idle (680-780 rpm) for 5 minutes and the transmission fluid temperature should be at least 70°C-80° (158° C F-176° using the scan tool. F) If transmission fluid needs to be added, add transmission fluid in 0.25L (1/2 pint) increments through the transmission fluid fill plug located on the top of the transaxle near the transmission fluid level indicator. Do not overfill the transmission fluid. Install the transmission fluid level indicator back in the transmission fluid filler tube until it is fully seated, then remove the indicator. The transmission fluid level should be at the upper-most mark on the transmission fluid level indicator. Only fill to the upper-most mark on the transmission fluid indicator. Do not overfill. Damage to the transaxle will occur.

FORD: 2006-2008 Explorer 2007-2008 Explorer Sport Trac This article supersedes TSB 08-3-8 to update the Service Procedure. ISSUE Some 2006-2008 Explorer 4dr, Mountaineer and 2007-2008 Explorer Sport Trac vehicles equipped with a 4.6L engine, 6R60 transmission and built prior to 11/28/2007 may exhibit a bump feeling while braking to a stop less than 10 MPH (16 Km/h). Some 2006 Explorer, Mountaineer and 2007 Sport Trac vehicles built prior to 05/4/2006 may exhibit the following symptoms: • Delayed engagements into Drive from Park, Neutral or Reverse. • Hesitation upon tip-in after braking to a stop. This TSB will diminish the incidence of the bump while braking at a stop and reduce tip-in hesitation while accelerating from a stop and improves the delayed engagements. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure steps to reprogram the transmission control module (TCM) and the powertrain control module (PCM). NOTE DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPLACE THE MECHATRONIC UNIT. MECHATRONIC REPAIR/REPLACEMENT IS NOT AUTHORIZED FOR THIS ISSUE. 1. Install IDS/PDS or equivalent and ID the vehicle. 2. Update the PCM and TCM calibration using IDS release 52.8 and higher or 53.1 and higher. This new calibration is not included in the VCM 2007.11 DVD. Calibration files may also be obtained at www.motorcraft.com. Since the TCM cannot be independently reprogrammed, reprogram the PCM to ensure that engine and transmission calibrations are updated to the latest level simultaneously. NOTE
