Default Automatic Tranny Fluid

I wanna know if there is a way to check my tranny fluid level. I looked for a dipstick, but I couldn't find one.

yes 30k. go get a flush.

kinda sucks because 1) cant do anything yoruself besides change the filter or 2) most shops dont have the fitting to connect in there so you gotta go to ford unless you can find that fitting

have you had your fuel filter changed yet too ..??? If not might as well just get your 50 thousand out of the way with the tranny flush ! And yeh its 30K for the change.. Anyone used other than stock fluids ..I.E like Royal Purlple or Amsoil ..??? Just had the 50 thousand one at 43K about 250 bucks but EVERYTHING was flushed and cleaned out ...... i noticed a little better response from the car overall, getting ready for spark plug change soon ... NOT LOOKING FORWARD to that nghtmare !
