Q: Where is the internal transmission filter located on a 2005 Ford 500

asked by on November 21, 2017

I’m trying to change my transmission internal filter on my car and I can’t find it
My car has an automatic transmission.

This transmission has a filter screen and no need to replace it in normal services. If the screen gets clogged then the transmission may need to have major repair or replacement.
