Thanks man. I just bought this cover…was searching for which fill hole to service up to. Looks sweet man!

Thanks for the video! Solid work, sir!

Great video!

Never saw him put the o-ring on the high pressure line to the pump.

You should only use genuine OEM Ford CVT transmission fluid in the Freestyle and Five hundred CVT transmissions. Also you shouldn't use any of those snake oil Lucas products. There's a reason that only transmission fluid goes into a transmission and engine oil only goes into an engine. Don't use additives as they can actually cause more damage.

It is an awesome and detailed video. I am actually replacing it myself and this is by far the best video! Thank you! Now I need one to repair coolant leak ha.

Warm, windy with snow on the ground! 🤣 Spoken like a true mid-westerner!

Observations (great video overall) Those "washers" that you didn't know what they were for and clipped them off? They are what holds the dust cover over the plate, which you ripped off leaving those still on. When you put it back on, the washers were discarded it's just a matter of time before it falls off while driving. Worst of all you removed the pan from the 62TE side wall and just placed it back on the tranny when done, no attention to making sure the gasket was still viable. After 150k miles I promise you it wasn't, and now it'll leak tranny fluid until she brings it back to you to pay for repairs you caused.

My 27 has no fuse.

Use 3M dry silicone spray on the silicone rubber seals to aid reassembly. You will be amazed how smoothly they connect back together when the connectors are clean and lubricated. do not use dielectric grease this will collect dirt and push the seal out of place and allow water to corrode the terminals. Before disconnecting use water or windex to remove the dirt and mud from the weatherpack connectors and blow it off with compressed air. repeat if necessary because we all know how difficult they can be to disconnect when dirty. Don't forget the DRY SILICONE SPRAY before reassembly. I learned this from working at the ford dealership.

Thanks from MN, I owe you a beer

What if you do 1 cylinder at a time

Details on new pan?

I replaced the entire valve body , cost about $120 on eBay, worked like a charm

If you have judge red one they was just simply exposed…does out the exposure cause any issues itself? I had a house nest and can’t find any serious chewing but a few exposures. Nocrank since the nest was made

Spark plug gapper used wrong.. the little hole in the back is for opening the gap.. not complaining just pointing out, sometimes doing it that way ruins the plug... I'm guilty of doing it as well😂

2 questions....Are these shocks really that much better than the 2.5" stock shocks for normal driving? Also, if youare wheeling that rig, Why didn't you weld those shock perches?

2005 Ford 500 CVT AWD. Same trans? Part # on filter and fluid?

Excellent video!!!!

This video rocks 🤙

Do you need to drain the fluid first? Also do you need to replace the gasket?

I replaced three blend door motors on an 09 one is hidden behind the black plastic on the left side of the glove box. I would take apart the glove box door to get more room,

Thanks very helpful 💯

Hey Man!!! Thank you so much!! Your video saved me lots of money, I took me 1:30 mins to do the job!!!

nice video 👍🏼 any follow up videos in the works? i’m curious to see how the bucket looks from the engine bay side and how it would affect replacing the lower spark plugs.

Hey, I want to go with the dorman but I saw some reviews that the drain plug weeps a little. Does yours have this problem? IF so, did you add anything to stop the weeping?

Wow never heard of a rear heater core . Good job

There's a much better, faster, and easier way to fill the transmission fluid using a device that hooks up to an air compressor. It has a housing that looks like a clear whole house water filter housing. That's the best way I can describe it. Also, you can avoid all the mess on the floor by using one of those big plastic containers that are used for mixing concrete in. They're cheap and any big box hardware store has them.

Good 👍 job brother. Teach me how to fix noise when driving

Thank you very helpful video and straight to the point 👍

Good morning Blessings, question every how many miles do I change the pulley or belt?

Thanks for this. I have not seen those cool heat shrink connectors.

I like your video and I'm getting ready to attempt the same thing but you don't have to put a new gasket around the pan before you bolts back together

You could have just removed the Ford emblem in the back. There are 2 screws and you get to the camera out!

Thank you this video I have an 07 doing exactly that the howling. appreciate it 😊

Great video it made everything easy in the pick and pull

I ended up taking the front differential cover off leaving two top bolts in but loose, was able to get a ton out, and cleaned decent. Used special gasket maker for gear oil before I retightened. Works good👍🏻

Thank you!

Could cause the same problem when shifting into reverse?

My 2010 GC shifts 1,2,3 but not 4,5,6. Is this the solenoid that needs to be replaced?

That solenoid prevents back firing

Thanks for the dip stick trick!!! My daughter's employer just bought a used 2016 Town and Country 2 weeks ago, with the 3.6L engine. He has let her use since; however, she says it keeps intermittently shifting hard and going into limp mode intermittently as she describes, along with the ubiquitous 172 and 175 codes. It's also throwing the generic P076A transmission codes. I don't know who prepped this car (even though it is the best detailed car I ever seen) but the transmission was grossly overfilled. I mean like it was at the equivalent of NOT 50mm, but literally "400mm". I can tell someone's been in the tranny as the sound deadening cover is missing from the side pan, and there is some weird white or light grey RTV on the lower pan. I think they did a drain but didn't measure how much came out and just added back the full total capacity not accounting for third or so that remains being. That along with filthy air filter and MAF. He had a shop that recommended he needed new O2 sensors, which he thankfully put off. I just cleaned the MAF, AF changed, and siphoned the extra trans fld out with a Harbor Feight hand pump. For less than $20 all back to normal. Again, thanks for the dip stick trick, never entered my mind.

TY VM, that helped. But there is another actuator somewhere that is clicking much stronger, when cool down the left side, somewhere on left i can hear it

You helped me. Owe u one

Great video! Question: Is this the same part that’s responsible when I drive the van, it doesn’t shift to 2nd or 3rd gear and rpm goes up and I can only run up to 40 miles an hour?

Good evening Blessings Greetings from San Carlos Costa Pura vida I am interested in buying Ford F150 Raptor 6.2 L but I like to find out the good and bad things about the truck, what is the reason it has coils for spark plugs at the top of the engine and suckers on the spark plugs at the bottom of the engine? the other spark plugs and do not have coils also down

Good job … thanks you

When that coil pack screw broke, was there enough room to get a drill with a small bit in there to drill it?

My Dodge caravan is just as easily accessible 😂😢 great engineering. No wonder so many people switch to Korean and Japanese 4 bangers.

A pro with the cam and one handed work. 😂👍
