External Sealing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Lincoln Navigator and 2017 Ford Expedition. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The pump assembly has a lip-type seal for the torque converter impeller hub. The pump assembly uses a large O-ring to seal the transmission case. The pump bolts also seal the pump to the transmission case.

The manual control lever shaft has a lip seal for its bore in the transmission case.

The transmission fluid pan uses a reusable gasket.

The output shaft flange has a lip-type seal that seals the flange to the transmission case.

The transmission case plug provides access to the park pawl shaft. The plug has a seal that is serviced as an assembly with the plug.

The transmission bulkhead connector sleeve has seals for the transmission case bore.

The plug for the fluid level indicator uses an O-ring seal.
