DriveTrain Transmission

Transmission
This 2001 Ford SportTrac has a factory equipped Ford# 5r55e.4WD+ISS 5Speed Automatic Transmission; this Transmission evolved from prior c3\c5\a4\4r\5r designs dating from the early 1970s, all produced at the Ford plant in Bordeoux France; this specific subversion in the 5r55e series was fitted into a variety of 2001~2011 year models which had drivetrains with the V6~4.0L~SOHC Engine & 1354~4WD TransferCase. It came equipped with a 4WDDeep Pan+Filter & P~R~N~D~2~1+OD ColumnShift & "OD OFF" ClusterLamp:
 * Ford# 1L5p-7000-ea \ 1L5z-7000-earm \ 1L5z-7v000-erm \ 5r55e.4WD+ISS

All 5r55e.4WD & 5r55e.2WD subversions of this Transmission are NOT interchangable between 2WD\4WD Vehicles as the 2WD\4WD TailShaftExtensions are different+unswappable. 1997~1998 5r55e subversions have an OverDriveSpeed\ODSSensor but it is NOT used by 1997~1998 Controls & it may be disconnected; they do NOT have an IntermediatShaftSpeed\ISSSensor; they do have an OutputShaftSpeed\OSSSensor. The 1999~2000 5r55e subversions do NOT have either the ODSSensor or the ISSSensor; they do have an OSSSensor. It should be noted, all 1997~2000 5r55e subversions are NOT interchangable\swappable into any 2001~2011 Vehicle as the later 2001~2011 Controls need an ISSSensor. 2001~2011 5r55e subversions do NOT have an ODSSensor; they do have the ISSSensor & the OSSSensor; 2001~2011 5r55e subversions can be interchanged or swapped into earlier 1997~2000 Vehicles & will work as intended with those prior 1997~2000 Controls, an ISSSensor is simply NOT needed & its unconnected in those 1997~2000 Vehicles.

Transmission Fluid
ATF Capacity 10q30 9L800. Do NOT use any MerconLV \ SP \ ULV or TypeCVT \ F \ FNR5 Fluid; they will damage Ford 5r55e Transmissions. Only use Fluid labeled Compliant with MerconV spec such as: ATF.MerconV~BaseOil Options ATF.MerconV~Blended Options ATF.MerconV~FulSyn Options ATF.MerconV Specifications

Transmission Maintenance
For 1995~2002 built 5r55e Transmissions, this one was built late 2000, an apparent consensus amongst experienced mechanics is the maintenance tasks below be performed to preserve operation & longevity. Photos & notes should be taken of every part before disassembly+removal as a guide during reassembly. Use PlasticZipperBags+PermanentMarker to store+tag smaller parts; this keeps them clean & organized. These items should be done AsSoonAsPossible\ASAP: ~ Have DripPan+ShopRags ready for 4~7qts of Fluid; 2WD ShallowPan has less & 4WD DeepPan has more. ~ Unclip & move the HeatShield off the right PanFlange, then loosen FactoryOE Pan by slowly unscrewing the 18 FlangeBolts; use a clean ThinBladeScrapper as needed to carefully crack the Flange+Gasket open. ~ Patiently allow Fluid to Drain+Drip to the DripPan; don't be in a hurry to take a Fluid shower; some 1.5qts can be pumped from the DipStickTube to minimize mess. Loosen+Remove FlangeBolts slowly; allow Fluid to Drain+Drip. While last FlangeBolt is removed, carefully lower Pan & empty remaining Fluid into DripPan. ~ Measure & note total Pumped+Drained ATF during this procedure as an estimate of refill quarts needed. ~ Factory original Pans were not fitted with Drains; original Pan should be swapped to an aftermarket Pan with DrainBung or Drill+Weld a new Bung to original Pan, then add a Drain MagneticBolt or BrassBallValve. ~ Slowly loosen the 1 Bolt holding Filter to bottom of ValveBody; if required carefully pry Filter loose with its Bolt partially engaged; allow ATF to drain+drip. When drip is stopped, unbolt & remove the Filter & its 2 ORings; again allow Fluid to drain from the ValveBody. ~ Inspect & clean the Pan+Magnet; remove old gasket & clean both Flanges; disect & inspect the Filter; make note of any fines or debris. ~ Here are search links for these parts.
