Questions About 2002 Mercury Grand Marquis’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Mercury's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Mercury? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Grand Marquis’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Grand Marquis is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Grand Marquis transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Mercury Grand Marquis’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it 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 Mercury. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
