2003 Mercury Marauder Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Mercury? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. 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 volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Marauder’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my Marauder's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Mercury Marauder transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Mercury Marauder transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mercury Marauder, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Who does Mercury Marauder transmission repair? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for Marauder transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Mercury Marauder if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Marauder to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
