The automatic transmission filter is pretty much buried inside the transmission, and is not easily accessed.
ransmissionfilter fordcontour
My Contour didnt have a transmission filter. It was just one of those inline things that needed to be back flushed.
you have to remove trans pan,and filter will be right there to replace
you can change the fluid, but not the filter. drain the fluid from the drain plug on the bottom of the transmission and refill from the dipstick. the filter is only accessable by overhauling the transmission
No there is no filter ur best bet will be a transmission flush at a oil change place
Inside the transmission under the pan.
your better off replacing the transmission the filter is not servicable ,,its deep in the center of the trans
Inside the transmission. The pan must be removed to access the filter.
i need to see a picture about where this is
Basically, you don't. The filter is not easily available in the CD4E automatic transmission. It doesn't have a bottom pan, so it would need to be disassembled to get at the filter.
it is located where the transmission is and is very easy to change. on a 2000 ford contour that is.
Remove the trans pan and then the filter. If the pan is on the front of the transmission, it cannot be replaced without rebuilding the transmission; because the bearings must be removed in order to get to the filter. Ford Contour transmissions do not have removeable filters. There is a metal screen which generally never needs to be replaced.
