High Fluid Level

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Ford RV Cutaway, 2005 Ford Econoline, and 2005 Ford Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

A fluid level that is too high may cause the fluid to become aerated due to the churning action of the rotating internal parts. This will cause erratic control pressure, foaming, loss of fluid from the vent tube, and possible transmission failure. If an overfill reading is indicated, drain and refill the transmission.
