Questions About 2004 Ford Crown Victoria’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Ford? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Ford Crown Victoria? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Crown Victoria towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system.

  • When should I have my Crown Victoria's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2004 Crown Victoria’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Ford's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Ford Crown Victoria leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Ford Crown Victoria, potentially causing transmission problems.
