2002 Ford F-350 Super Duty Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Ford's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Ford? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your F-350 Super Duty’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my F-350 Super Duty's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2002 F-350 Super Duty’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Ford. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Ford F-350 Super Duty? Yes. Ford F-350 Super Duty transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
