2024 FORD E SERIES transmission

Correct Fluid Level
Drive the vehicle 19 mi (30 km) or until itreaches normal operating temperature.Check the fluid at the normal operatingtemperature of 196°F (91°C) to 215°F(102°C) on a level surface.
High Fluid Level
Fluid levels above the safe range mayresult in transmission failure. An overfillcondition of transmission fluid may causeshift and engagement concerns, andpossible damage.
An overheating condition can cause highfluid levels.
Adjusting Automatic TransmissionFluid Levels
Note:Use of a non-approved automatictransmission fluid may cause internaltransmission component damage.
Make sure to use the correct type of fluid.You can find the type of fluid used on thetransmission dipstick, or in your Owner'sManual. See Capacities andSpecifications (page 226).
If necessary, add fluid in 8 fl oz (250 ml)increments through the filler tube until thelevel is correct.
