Hey, Scotty please help I can't find the transmission filter in my 2012 ford fusion s. I am changing the transmission fluid in the car but I can not find the filter. fusion has 107,235 miles help.
Did you already open up the transmission?
You did. OK that wasn't smart. You should never start work on a vehicle without doing your research, and gathering all the tools and parts you need FIRST.
Now, as was mentioned, your transmission might not have a removable filter. So call the dealership service centre with your VIN and ask them if that's the case.
I already changed the fluid and found out in the online owner's manual that the filter is nonremovable and at the top of the transmission.
I was unable to find a diagram of the the transmission filter location.
I was able to find a number of sites that are stating the transmission is designed for drain and fill only.
Apparently the filter is non-serviceable (easy to access), the transmission would need to be removed and disassembled in order to change the filter.
yes
