My wife has a 2000 Taurus wagon with the Duratec 3.0 24-valve. Just passed 30,000 miles.
The Scheduled Maintenance Guide says to change the fluid for five different transmission models. Where do I find if we've got one of these models? I've looked at the original window sticker, and at the driver's door sticker.
Is it practical to do this at home? I see no drain plug, and dropping the tranny pan will probably not drain the converter anyway.
Is a flush appropriate? Does it use Mercon V?
Thanks
