    Learn how to check the transmission fluid level on a Ford Expedition with a 5.4 engine. The Expedition shown in this video is a 2012, if your Expedition is around the same year it should be the same procedure.
    It is important to perform routine maintenance on your transmission so that it functions properly.
    Checking the transmission fluid level is important to ensure that the internal clutches and parts are properly lubricated and do not prematurely wear.

    Thanks. I was trying to figure out where to check it on my sisters expedition. This is why I will stay with older vehicles. Engineers are intentionally making things more difficult.

      I think you may have opened it without the car running - it can appear overfilled even when it is not. Check the fluid with the vehicle warm and running in park.

    My second gear slips for about a second then catches it's been doing that for a few years can it be the transmission oil or filter it's a 03 ford explorer slt

    • @HomeOwnerRepair

      Check the transmission fluid level. You may want to put a new transmission filter in along with some new fluid.

    after how many miles should i check the trans fluid level? also, how long does the filter last? thanks

    • @HomeOwnerRepair
      @HomeOwnerRepair  2 роки тому +3

      You should check it every six months and replace the transmission filter every 30,000 miles. Hope this helps you out.

      I believe it gets added in that dipstick hole. You need a fluid transfer pump to add it in...huge pain in the butt

      You should also change that filter, It will catch the small particles floating around in the transmission fluid.

    Hello Sir,
    I am buying a Ford Expedition 2014 model with 101k KM. The gear oil has never been changed. Is it cause for issue? as my dads crown victoria we changed gear oil at 137K KM at ford and instantly the gear failed and we had to replace the whole gear.
    Please guide me. The expedition has been very well maintained apart from that with periodic engine oil and not been used rough at all.

      You can check it with the engine off. It is off in the video when we check it. I would check it when it is warm.

    okay I got that but majorly on the other hand that is crazy why would Ford do something that's really should be truly easy to check and fix then making it complicated the check and fix

    • @HomeOwnerRepair

      At least there is a dip stick on these trucks. A lot of vehicles have sealed transmissions now.
